A thread dedicated to user findings of aerial photography depicting NYC.
The only rule I ask In general is to state the source after the end of an image set or the author, the place where the images are found, and a link preferably.
Amazing helicopter riding covering Bronx, Manhattan, and something many don’t, the Jersey side. 20 minutes, but its worth every second. Probably one of the best one’s I’ve ever seen, and I’ve seen many.
This is pretty cool. Uploaded on 24/02/2016, it looks to be taken around Fall of 2015, but its a 20 gigapixel interactive panorama. If you expand it, make it full screen, the detail when zooming in allows you to see people on the street and for miles. All of DoBro, White Plains, parts of Connecticut, Queens, SI, all of Manhattan, parts of Newark, Hudson County, Gold Coast and so on.
You could probably spend a good 30 minutes looking at the details if not more. Spotted a couple of interesting things on rooftops. Taken from the ESB observatory.
Its 203200 x 101600 which means lots of spying around.
