Description
The aerial imagery catalogue of swisstopo includes several hundred thousand analogue aerial photographs (in colour, infrared, or black and white). They are represented by the centre-image coordinates, the image footprint, as well as by their metadata (including orientation elements, if available). If already digitised, the images can be downloaded and viewed in full resolution. Missing scans of the images are gradually being added and made directly available. As part of the Sanasilva programme to record the health of forests, lines were engraved directly onto some original aerial photographs. According to the commissioning party at the time, these markings were used in the evaluation to distinguish between different tree populations – i.e. populations of the same age and/or with the same species composition.
