   The most recent and best quality photography available for an area is displayed by default. If you want to view historical photography for your area of interest just click on ´Select from other historical photography´. The aerial image displayed in the map window will change accordingly.

   

   The list of current and historical aerial photography displayed includes those that are relevant for your location and are listed in the order of when the aerial images were captured (with the most recent image appearing at the top of the list).

This can be done by using the scissors tool () on the toolbar to "draw" a square/rectangular-shaped box around the desired area of photograph. This box should be should be visible in the map window and confirms the section being ordered.

STEP 3: Specify Your Photo Output Properties

To specify how you wish to have your photography delivered to you, just follow the steps below:

1. Confirm the format of image you require from the selection available in the Image Format Field.

There are four image formats to choose from:

• JPEG (or JPG) format (default)
• ECW format
• JPEG2000 (*.jp2) format
• GEOTIFF format

2. Confirm the quality you require. Landgate recommends that for smaller images it remains at default quality, Best. For larger images the image quality can be changed to High, Medium or Low.

   The photography displayed will be based on the default properties of its original source (i.e. the original mosaic that the image was taken from).

   To change these default properties, select the "Advanced Properties" link to make the appropriate changes.

   

   Important Notes

   1. Changing the default ground measurement of your aerial photography will alter the price and quality of your image.
   2. There is a limit to the size of aerial imagery that can be purchased online. To find out more, see 'Will the size of the photography that I buy affect how it is delivered?".

   Want to learn more...

   To obtain further details about the options available under "Advanced Properties" see below:

   • Changing the ground measurement / resolution of your image, see 'What image resolution do I choose?'
   • Changing the quality of your image, see 'How will my aerial photograph be affected by changing the compression ratio? Why do I need to change it?'
   • Changing the projection of your image, see 'Can I order the image in another Projection?'

3. Review the Cost of your photography. The uncompressed size of your aerial image (in megabytes) will affect the cost. Therefore, if the dimensions of your image change, the size (and consequently the cost) of your image requested will all also change.
