So the next small talk to you about some of the basic knowledge of aerial photography.

First, the main classification of aerial photography

Panchromatic black-and-white photography: the use of panchromatic black-and-white light-sensitive materials for photography. It can sense all kinds of color light in the visible light band (0.4-0.76μm), which is one of the widely used and easy to collect aerial remote sensing data. It is one of the widely used and easily collected aerial remote sensing data. For example, the aerial images taken by our country for the measurement of national basic topographic maps belong to this category.

Black-and-white infrared photography: photography using black-and-white infrared light-sensitive materials. It can be visible light, near-infrared light (0.4-1.3μm) wavelength sensitivity, especially on the water body vegetation sensitive response, the camera film has a high contrast and resolution.

Color photography: Although the color film also feels the visible light band of various color light, but because it can be the natural color of the object, darkness and depth of expression, so compared with the full-color black-and-white film, the image is more clear, high resolution.

Basic Preparation

1, before taking off, to shoot the scenery for a detailed understanding. It is better to understand how the terrain is.

2, aerial photography, the photographer's body can not be close to the aircraft, should maintain a certain distance from the body, so as not to vibrate too much impact on the clarity of the photo.

3, before lifting off, with alcohol cotton balls to wipe the airplane window glass clean, so as not to affect the clarity of the photo.

Of course, these preparations are only for our ordinary photographers in the aircraft navigation in the shooting, if it is a real aviation photography but also with the crew and other staff to communicate and interact with arrangements, but also to prepare for the communication facilities, that effort under the big is not ordinary.
