As a geographer, by assimilation in a sense, I enjoy the view from an aeroplane's window, natural & engineered landscapes - including, as a hydrologist again by assimilation, of one of those LA's concrete water control structures shown so often in movies involving vehicles driving quickly down them and splashing across standing water in them for no particular reason except the effect...

H/T Doug Newcomb
[A general focus but very interesting and informative]
“James Morrison, head pilot and UAS ("Unmanned Aircraft System") lead at Ordnance Survey, discusses the use of drones in mapping and surveying. He shares examples of how drones were used to quickly assess landslips and update mapping in the Isle of Wight, as well as capture data for residential housing developments. James explains the different types of drones used by Ordnance Survey and their capabilities, including capturing imagery with centimeter-level accuracy…”
