By utilising a helicopter equipped with a thermal camera, gimbal-supported aerial thermography gets a third dimension through infrared. From an elevated position an infrared camera can visualise a large thermographic overview for a variety of applications. Depending on the actual mission plan fixed wing aircraft can provide further options for those applications as well, of course.
