Aerial surveying refers to the act of using aircrafts or other moving platforms to scan properties and objects from a bird's eye view. It is a method of surveying that is most common among pilots and engineers. In this method, the user is able to observe the land or property from afar and take measurements to understand the objects in question.

Securing aerial maps before conducting a reconnaissance survey is essential to ensure accurate planning and navigation during the survey. It allows surveyors to identify key landmarks, potential obstacles, and specific areas of interest beforehand. Using up-to-date and precise aerial maps helps to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the survey by providing clear guidance and reducing the risk of errors or misinterpretations.
