This aerial photograph of Claremont School in Oakland was found using a free web site run by the USGS called the National Map. Cars, trees, basketball courts (including the shadow of the backboard), and even individual classroom windows are visible. You can download one of your school, too! The National Map has air photos of most of the country -- the clarity of the photos varies by region, with the best quality images covering urban areas throughout the country. |
