A walkthrough is not a type of aerial photography, but it can be a way to present aerial imagery, such as virtual tours or flyovers. However, I can explain the different types of aerial photography and their applications in detail.

Types of Aerial Photography and Their Applications

1. Based on Camera Angle

📌 Vertical Aerial Photography

• Description: Camera is positioned directly downward (90° angle).
• Applications: Cartography (Map Making) Land Surveys & GIS (Geographic Information Systems) Urban Planning & Infrastructure Development Agriculture & Land Use Monitoring

📌 Oblique Aerial Photography

• Description: Camera is angled to capture a wider view.
• Types: Low Oblique (No horizon visible) High Oblique (Horizon visible)
• Applications: Real Estate & Property Showcasing Tourism & Landscape Promotion Archaeological Surveys Disaster Management & Damage Assessment

2. Based on Platform Used

📌 Drone (UAV) Aerial Photography

• Description: Captured using drones (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles).
• Applications: Real Estate Virtual Tours & Walkthroughs Wildlife & Environmental Monitoring Aerial Cinematography for Films & Advertisements Event Coverage & Sports Broadcasting

📌 Satellite Aerial Photography

• Description: High-altitude images taken from satellites.
• Applications: Weather Forecasting & Climate Studies Remote Sensing & Geological Research Military & Intelligence Surveillance Disaster Response & Relief Planning

📌 Manned Aircraft Aerial Photography

• Description: Taken from helicopters or airplanes at varying altitudes.
• Applications: City Planning & Large-Scale Mapping Oil & Gas Exploration Search and Rescue Operations Defense & Military Reconnaissance

3. Based on Purpose

📌 Reconnaissance Aerial Photography

• Description: Used for military and security purposes.
• Applications: Border Surveillance & Security Operations Strategic Military Planning Infrastructure & Facility Monitoring

📌 Cartographic Aerial Photography

• Description: Used for map-making and 3D modeling.
• Applications: GIS Mapping & Topographical Analysis Highway & Transportation Planning Urban Expansion Studies

📌 Thermal & Infrared Aerial Photography

• Description: Captures heat signatures rather than visible light.
• Applications: Wildlife Tracking & Conservation Search & Rescue Missions (Finding Lost Individuals) Firefighting & Hotspot Detection Industrial Equipment Inspection

📌 Panoramic Aerial Photography

• Description: Wide-angle images covering large areas.
• Applications: Tourism & Destination Marketing Landscape & Cityscape Photography Large-Scale Construction Documentation

How "Walkthrough" Relates to Aerial Photography

A walkthrough using aerial photography can mean:
✔ Real Estate Virtual Tours – Aerial shots of properties for marketing.
✔ 3D Flythrough Animations – Used in city planning and architecture.
✔ Tourism & Travel Showcases – Drone footage of destinations.
✔ Cinematic Film Sequences – Used in movies and advertisements.
