Infrared aerial photo

Great infrared imagery of the Wisconsin-Madison University Stadium. This image is a great example of an infrared aerial photo. This type of imagery is very useful for looking at things such as vegetation due to it being highly reflective to the IR spectrum. That idea really sticks out here. Note that the football field is not giving the same infrared imagery as the other vegetation because it is an artificial turf. By using this type of remote sensing process, we can more easily look at things that we may not be able to notice with our own eyes.
