In 1906 2nd Lieutenant Philip Henry Sharpe photographed Stonehenge from a Royal Engineers' balloon, the results proved how useful low-level aerial photography is for understanding features and structures on the ground.
Now over 100 years later, Aerial-Cam provides an aerial record of excavation sites, historic buildings and ancient monuments with detailed oblique and vertical photographs.
Aerial-Cam was set up by a field archaeologist specifically to answer the needs of excavation site recording. Combining experience of archaeological fieldwork and a variety of photographic methods it recognises the need for a versatile raised camera platform in high quality digital and film formats.
Aerial-Cam removes the need for scaffolding and the associated risks, permits and insurance problems of raising personnel in the air.
