Infrared aerial photo

   Shown above is an infrared aerial photo taken in Nigeria. Infrared aerial photo is extremely useful in that it can help us archive changes to nature. It not only helps us keep track with the changes in our environment, but also can help greatly in helping us observe large pieces of land that otherwise could not be done by human eye such as someone's entire farm. At times this saves farmers because with these photos they are able to find if their plants are being infected by certain pests.
