Infrared Aerial Photo

Infrared Aerial Photo


Infrared Aerial photographs are taken from satellites and use infrared film and digital sensors that are sensitive to a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. With the use of exact filtration and processing, they provide valuable information such as specific vegetation, land, and water usage, among a multitude of other things. The infrared photograph to the right shows the different vegetation and water polution in the   Sacramento Deep Water Channel in Sacramento, California.
