Digital Aerial Photography

Aerial Photography

The Ordnance Survey can provide monochrome or colour aerial photography from a large archive dating back to the 1970s. Photography is available in digital TIFF format, in a range of scales from 1:5000 to 1:20,000.

A number of additional services are also available, including scanning of imagery and flying photography to customer specified requirements.

Ortho-Photography

Ordnance Survey Ireland provides digitally scanned and ortho-rectified raster colour and black and white photography in both low and high resolution, supplied in TIFF format. The ortho-rectification process removes distortions caused by camera tilt and topographical features to produce a scale accurate image.
