Geotagged aerial images are aerial photographs or images that are captured by cameras mounted on aircraft or drones and are tagged with geographical information. This information is usually in the form of latitude, longitude, and altitude, which is embedded into the image’s metadata.
Geotagging enables the precise positioning of the aerial image on a map or geographic information system (GIS) and allows for accurate analysis and measurement of features on the ground. Geotagged aerial images are used in various fields such as agriculture, urban planning, land surveying, environmental monitoring, and disaster management, among others.
With the help of geotagged aerial images, it is possible to create detailed maps, measure distances and areas, monitor changes in land use, and identify potential hazards or risks in a particular area.
