Modern aerial photography
Our modern photographs were all taken in the last decade and are plan colour photographs. They offer extensive coverage of Great Britain, allowing all areas to be seen from above. These photos also help you to assess the changing modern built landscape.
These photos include the Millennium Map of colour aerial photos of England and Wales (taken between 1999-2003). They have been stitched together to create a single seamless image. In addition, this imagery which has been produced by Getmapping, includes coverage of the majority of Scotland from 2004 onwards.
These GeoPerspectives colour photos, produced by Bluesky, cover all of England and Wales, with some Scottish coverage.
These are high resolution colour images that cover central London, produced by Blom Aerofilms. Each photo covers approximately 1.5km².
