Aerial Photography
Aerial photography often plays an important part in accident
reconstruction. The more germane black and white aerial taken
from a film library of high altitude fly-overs are often utilized to
provide a general sense of the accident area. These
photographs, when enlarged, are generally grainy and difficult for
the layperson to interpret. When a dedicated flight for a specific
accident scene is used, the results are
color photographs generally much
lower to the ground and, in many
instances, taken closer in time to that of
the actual accident. These color aerial
photographs are much more useful in
generating an overall feel of the
accident scene. Depending on how
they are enlarged, dedicated flight
aerials may provide more detail than a
photograph taken at ground level.
CrushAnalysis normally combines
ground level photography and aerial
photography with marked common reference points to
provide an unquestionable additional tool for an
adjuster, attorney or a jury attempting to interpret an
accident scene. Color aerial enlargements with
positioned vehicles or cones have come to be a
trademark at Crush Analysis. In addition, we have
developed a method of integrating aerial photographs
into simulations. The cost is low and the result
invaluable.
