there is no such thing as an aerial map however there are aerial photographs. This are normally obtained by mounting a special camera onto a plane and the plane flies over the region you wish to obtain photos from. The photos then undergo a process known as georefrencing where actual points on the ground are matched with actual points on the photos in order t give co-ordinates to the aerial photograph. different photograph may be combined to map a larger area
