Infrared Aerial photograph-San Diego, CA

IKONOS satellite 4 m resolution infrared image of San Diego downtown
This is an infrared aerial image of San Diego, California.  It's imagery is the same as a regular aerial photo, but all the color on the map is falsified.  Generally it is returned back as red, and is a useful way to distinguish urban areas from natural areas.  Aerial photography is useful in tracking storm systems and hurricanes as well.http://californiamapsociety.org/mapping/remote.php
