Die Wurzeln des militärische Luftbildwesens reichen bis in die Zeit vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg zurück. Die Entwicklungslinien in den deutschen Staaten bis 1945 nachzuverfolgen, ist Gegenstand dieses Buches. Im Mittelpunkt stehen Frage nach dem Zusammenwirken von Militär und dieser Technologie. Diese Veröffentlichung hat propädeutischen Charakter, indem sie diese Grundlagen für die deutschen Luftaufnahmen erläutert und auf Zugangs- und Verwendungsmöglichkeiten hinweist. An overview on the history of military aerial photography in the German military from the beginning to the end of World War II.

"Visitors to Texas and New Mexico have marveled for centuries at the immensity of the Llano Estacado and the surprising contrast as, at the edges of the great mesa, the flat ground gives way suddenly to such spectacular formations as the Palo Duro and Caprock Canyons. In the introduction to Amarillo Flights, artist and naturalist Walt Davis chronicle the history of this region-what Paul Chaplo calls the "Llano Country"-and of those artists, mapmakers, and travelers who have tried in various ways to capture its spirit. Working in "the vast studio of the sky," aerial photographer Chaplo has battled high winds, turbulence, dust, ice, near-miss bird strikes, wildfire smoke, and a host of aircraft problems to show the Llano Country from a place most of us will never be. Covering more than forty thousand square miles, he explores the incredible beauty and rich cultural history of the Panhandle and the surrounding landscapes, from canyons in New Mexico and Texas to hills and plains in Oklahoma. With the help of daring pilots, numerous aircraft, and a remarkably steady hand, Chaplo manages to capture in more than 100 striking photographs the shapes, textures, and colors of the rugged landforms that cannot be perceived fully from the ground. Sharing in his unique view from the southwestern sky, readers will experience from afar-and sometimes impossibly close-the sunlit canyons, storm-covered plains, and winding rivers cutting deep into the red earth that drew Chaplo to this region. For those who appreciate the Llano Estacado, Texas and Eastern New Mexico history, and landscape photography, this book provides a fresh and perception-challenging perspective"--

"Remains to be Seen explores a disappearing but still tangible American landscape, from the rust-belt towns of the Midwest to the borscht-belt resorts of the Catskill mountains. Using drone photography with documentary candor and precision, Travis Fox creates a visually sumptuous record of former industrial sites and abandoned neighborhoods that persist as incisions on the landscape and scars in the memory. Fox is able to find patterns that are undetectable from the ground, uncovering a new visual record of old and debilitating problems, from institutionalized racism to environmental destruction. "Remains to be Seen" offers a bracing vision of an America that has become so familiar that it is, paradoxically, invisible to many Americans."--Amazon.com

Ballons beleuchtet die Geschichte der Luftfahrt in einem neuen Blickwinkel. Das Buch widmet sich den Medien und Techniken früher Luftfahrten und zeigt auf, dass Ballons zentrale Schauplätze meteorologischer, fotografischer und ingenieurtechnischer Wissensproduktion im 19. Jahrhundert waren. Von den ersten Aufstiegen mit Montgolfièren 1783 bis zu den erfolgreichen Fahrten mit lenkbaren Luftschiffen um 1900 wurde mit Ballons die Atmosphäre erkundet, die Erdoberfläche beobachtet und die Flugtechnik verbessert. Hannah Zindel folgt Ballonfahrten innerhalb und außerhalb wissenschaftlicher Institutionen in Frankreich, England und der Schweiz in der zweiten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Sie vertieft die epistemischen Eigenheiten eines nicht zu steuernden Luftfahrzeugs und zeichnet nach, wie sich Ballons von schiffbrüchigen Abenteuervehikeln zu schwebenden Observatorien wandelten.

What happens when a drone enters a gallery or appears on screen? What thresholds are crossed as this weapon of war occupies everyday visual culture? These questions have appeared with increasing regularity since the advent of the War on Terror, when drones began migrating into civilian platforms of film, photography, installation, sculpture, performance art, and theater. In this groundbreaking study, Thomas Stubblefield attempts not only to define the emerging genre of ";drone art"; but to outline its primary features, identify its historical lineages, and assess its political aspirations. Richly detailed and politically salient, this book is the first comprehensive analysis of the intersections between drones, art, technology, and power.

The rise in sea level is a visible and remorseless indicator of global warming, the consequences of which can be experienced worldwide - in contrast to other effects of climate change that are not yet noticeable at a larger scale.The book illustrates, in an impressive way, the ecological, commercial, and social impact associated with the rise in sea levels, taking the examples of the American East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico : the author has documented this region from his Cessna between 2005 and 2018 using large-format aerial photography. The pictures illustrate the different conditions of the areas documented at different times of the year, before and after major weather events, and thereby provide evidence of how dramatically the geography and landscape are altered due to climate change.

River discharge is a fundamental hydrologic quantity that summarizes how a watershed transforms the input of precipitation into output as channelized streamflow. Accurate discharge measurements are critical for a range of applications including water supply, navigation, recreation, management of in-stream habitat, and the prediction and monitoring of floods and droughts. However, the traditional stream gage networks that provide such data are sparse and declining. Remote sensing represents an appealing alternative for obtaining streamflow information. Potential advantages include greater efficiency, expanded coverage, increased measurement frequency, lower cost and reduced risk to field personnel. In addition, remote sensing provides opportunities to examine long river segments with continuous coverage and high spatial resolution. To realize these benefits, research must focus on the remote measurement of flow velocity, channel geometry and their product: river discharge. This Special Issue fostered the development of novel methods for retrieving discharge and its components, and thus stimulated progress toward an operational capacity for streamflow monitoring. The papers herein address all aspects of the remote measurement of streamflow—estimation of flow velocity, bathymetry (water depth), and discharge—from various types of remotely sensed data acquired from a range of platforms: manned and unmanned aircraft, satellites, and ground-based non-contact sensors.
