Aerial photography has a multitude of uses including backdrop mapping and context for a wide range of studies. Ideal for looking at the reality of a location in great detail, the aerial photography available is 25cm vertical ortho-photography and is available for the whole of Great Britain. The dates of each location will vary, according to what was flown by Getmapping in any given year. By default, the latest version for any location is shown in Roam. Earlier versions are available for download.

Aerial Digimap has found uses in coastal zone studies, archaeology, urban studies and town planning, historical studies looking at change over time and habitat change among many other uses.
