As the need for geographical data rapidly expands in the 21st
century, so too do applications of small-format aerial photography
for a wide range of scientific, commercial and governmental
purposes. Small-format Aerial Photography (SFAP) presents basic and
advanced principles and techniques with an emphasis on digital
cameras. Unmanned platforms are described in considerable detail,
including kites, helium and hot-air blimps, model airplanes, and
paragliders. Several case studies, primarily drawn from the
geosciences, are presented to demonstrate how SFAP is actually used
in various applications. Many of these integrate SFAP with
ground-based investigations as well as conventional large-format
aerial photography, satellite imagery, and other kinds of
geographic information.
Small Format Aerial Photography and UAS Imagery: Principles,
Techniques and Geoscience Applications, Second Edition, provides
basic and advanced principles and techniques for Small Format
Aerial Photography (SFAP), focusing on manned and unmanned aerial
systems, including drones, kites, blimps, powered paragliders, and
fixed wing and copter SFAP. The authors focus on everything from
digital image processing and interpretation of data, to travel and
setup for the best result, making this a comprehensive guide for
any user. Nine case studies in a variety of environments, including
gullies, high altitudes, wetlands and recreational architecture are
included to enhance learning. This new edition includes small
unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and discusses changes in legal
practices across the globe. In addition, the book presents the
history of SFAP, providing background and context for new
developments.
