Black and white aerial photo

www3.shropshire-cc.gov.uk/.../lan/lan_f02.htm

This map is a black and white aerial photo and it is similar to the infrared aerial in some ways, but also has its own unique perspective and differences from other maps and photos. In this map, it is important to see the trend that the black and white photo is able to over more of a finner scale and gradient to the overall larger picture. In this photo, unlike the infrared, there is only a black and white scale so it gives the map and geographical features more texture and pattern and therefore the interpreter of the map is able to see differences in detail of the landscape, which might have been missed if there were simply color differences.
