I was looking at the Archi website in the links section, and was impressed by the cd-roms of aerial photos. As usual though, Scotland isn't covered yet, but if the samples are anything to go by they'll be worth waiting for. My county archaeologist used aerial photos from 1971 to identify previously unseen pits on the south end of the Field of Bannockburn a couple of years back. Unfortunately, when excavated recently they turned out to be trial pits dug last century by locals looking for coal! Can't win them all. Regards, Gordon

Photographs are taken using a 50ft telescopic mast attached to a customised vehicle or tri pod system, this enables the photographer to capture stunning pictures of properties, landscapes and events not normally seen from the ground.

The whole system including the camera is controlled from below via a lap top computer which views real time images the camera sees. These images are downloaded where they can be transferred to CD or printed out on site.
