Black and White Aerial Photo

This picture is a black and white aerial photo of Rochester. The purpose of this photo was for the author of this website to figure out what the quickest routes around town were. Here you can see that this is an urban setting and you can clearly see major roadways and if you zoomed in you could see more details including smaller streets and landmarks. Not only could this be used to show different routes, but this could also be used by developers to show empty lots in an area. Realtors could also use this map because they could show people what area their house or their apartment would be in.  I think that the black and white aspect really makes the roads pop out which would have made this type of photo even more useful for establishing the quickest route, because you wouldn’t have to search hard to find the roads.
