LAST CHANCE for Aerial Infrared Wildlife Surveys --
Winter is the perfect time (and in most cases, the only time...)
for cities, counties, developers, etc. to get accurate deer and game counts.
The most accurate method for obtaining deer counts is via aerial infrared scanning when the trees are free from leaves and the air is cold. Above All - Ohio is one of only a few companies in the United States that is capable of performing this service 100% in-house. We have all of the right equipment and personnel to perform this type of job without the need to subcontract out any part of it. This can mean significant financial savings if you need this service. Please contact us ASAP if you need this specialty photography service. There is still time to get your survey completed, but spring is fast approaching and soon the animals will be hiding under the leaves! As a reminder, our infrared services are covered by our 100% satisfaction guarantee. Also, as with our regular aerial photogrpahy, we offer our infrared imagings services nationwide! Affordable services and discounts -- We offer discounts on follow-up visits to sites that we have photographed and/or scanned with our infrared camera. As long as your account is in good standing, you will be elgible for the discount on all return visits to the same site. This allows you to document progress, or verify that repairs were done correctly. Please let us know when you call if you will be needing multiple visits - the more visits you commit to, the lower the price per visit. As always, we will work with you to customize a program that will ensure you get the best service and value. A quick IR scan can pay for itself - quickly! -- In addition to our aerial infrared scanning services, Above All - Ohio also offers fast, affordable infrared scans for residential customers and small businesses. We can scan your home, office, or other commercial building to find hidden problems such as energy-wasting insulation deficiencies and areas where moisture may be infiltrating causing damage and health issues (mold thrives in wet walls!). The best time to perform infrared scans is when the outdoor and indoor temperatures are vastly different. This means that winter and summer are the best times to check for energy wasting problems in your home, office, or commercial property. Soon, spring will be here, windows will be open, and detection will be more time consuming and difficult (but not impossible!). Call today to schedule your inspection! The sooner you find and correct energy-wasting problems, the sooner you will start saving energy and the sooner you will start saving money! Please contact us today to set up your inspection or to get more information! |
Spring Aerials --
The snow is gone (hopefully!!) the leaves have not yet come back, and the sun
angles are a little steeper. What does all that mean? It means that spring is
one of the best times to see land features in wooded areas from the air.
Contact us ASAP if you need photos or photomaps
of areas that will be obscured by leaves in the near future!
As a reminder, Above All - Ohio is a full-time, year-round professional aerial and specialty photography provider. Rest assured that we will be able to get your job done in a timely, professional manner no matter what time of year you need our services. Even though the weather in our area is improving as the season changes, we still highly recommend that you plan ahead and give us as much notice as possible when you need photos. This will allow us to get your photos on the nicest possible day. Contact us by whatever means is most convenient for you to get on our schedule! Let our images work for you! -- Whatever your requirements are for aerial or ground-based photography, scheduling as far in advance as possible the best way to ensure you will receive the highest quality photos. Unfortuantely, we know that you can't always plan as far ahead as you'd like to. In those cases, please know that we will do everything possible to help you! Since we own our own airplane and the latest professional camera and infrared equipment, we can respond quickly to your needs - in some cases, we have been known to take an order in the morning and deliver the photos in the afternoon! The bottom line is this: Tell us your needs; we'll take care of you! Reminder -- All of the photos on our web site are reduced in size (drastically reduced in size...) and compressed for faster loading in your web browser. The photos we deliver to clients are much bigger and sharper than the ones you see online. The images we deliver do not have our name, copyright notices, or watermarks on them. If you would like a sample image, just ask! |
Website Updates -- We apologize for
the lack of updates recently! We have been unusually busy this winter as our happy
clients have found more uses for our work. (That's not a complaint! We truly appreciate
every job we do, no matter how big or small!) We are working on catching up on our
"Stock Photo of the Week" feature once again. Thank you for your patience
while are busy helping our customers and working to improve our services for you!
About our slogan -- You may have noticed that we've recently begun using the slogan "Our images will work for you." We want to emphasize to our customers and future customers that our number one goal is to help you and give you photos and images that have value beyond just being "pretty" or "cool" pictures. Whether you need to sell a large building or a large piece of land, or whether you need to document a large construction project, or whether you need to evaluate a roof, an electrical box, or mechanical equipment in infrared, our images will help! It's a cliche, but our photos really are worth a thousand words (or more...). Let us know how we can help you and how our images can start working for you. Copyright Reminder -- All of the photos, graphics, written words, and page layouts/designs that you see on our web site were created by us and are all copyrighted material. You may use the photos we have posted on our site freely for personal use only as long as you do not modify them in any way and our contact information (web site address) and copyright notice remain intact, visible, and readable. If you need larger images or images adjusted in any way to fit your needs, please contact us. We will be happy to help you. Unfortunately, we have recently found instances of some of our photos being used without credit on other companies' web sites. We have even found our competitors using words from our FAQ and other pages word-for-word on their own web sites! Both of these are examples of copyright infringement and we will take action whenever we find them. Although we do donate goods or services from time to time to charitable organizations, please do not ask us to work for free or steal from us for your own personal gain or for the gain of your company. Like you, we deserve to be paid for the work we do - which includes the services we provide, the images we create, and the words we author - if they are of use and/or value to you. We do not steal from other people or ask anyone to do work for us for free. |

"Flying Easter Bunny?" We spend a lot of time up in the air looking down at the ground, but sometimes it pays to look at the other parts of the sky and see who's flying around with us... We thought this lonely cloud sort of looked like an Easter Bunny, running or leaping through the air so fast that his ears are laid down flat on his back. As for the little cloud behind him, well, we're just going to say that's a piece of his cotton tail that fell off because he was running to the next house so fast...

March 18-24, 2013 "Start of the Season" Spring is here and we all know what that means - construction season will soon be in full swing! This oblique view of a construction site is an example of what we provide to contractors, project owners, investors, or others with a financial interest in large projects. Having a neutral third-party provide documentation of construction progress allows all parties involved to see that money is being spent on work as it is intended. Sometimes, contractors use our periodic aerials to spot problems, take inventory of tools and supplies that are on the site, or just to document the job for posterity (after all, they will only ever have ONE chance per project to get views like these...). We typically provide our customers with 8 to 12 different views after each trip, but sometimes more are required to cover all of the site. (Unlike some companies, we do not charge per photo - we deliver as many photos as are needed to completely document the site, but the price doesn't change.) We have provided progression aerials on a full range of schedules customized to fit our clients' needs. We have provided weekly, twice per month, monthly, quarterly, annual, and irregular "on-demand" services. Please contact us if we can be of service on your project!

"Green, Green Field" In honor of St. Patrick's Day this week, we decided to go back to featuring a photo with a lot of green. We searched the archives and found this photo - perhaps the "greenest" photo we have! This nearly vertical aerial photo is of a field of cows feeding in a pasture. (We think it looks like a flag, especially with the paths to the feeding trough making a kind of a star pattern. What do you think?) This view makes it easy to count large animals - cows in this case - and it is similar to how we would count wildlife. However, counting deer in the woods is not this easy -- deer are very well camoflagued so our regular aerial photo maps would be of little (or no...) use for determining the size of the herd (even at very high 3-inch resolution). Fortunately, we have a better way to accomplish that task -- aerial infrared imaging. Deer generate heat, and hiding from our FLIR infrared camera is much, much more difficult! We are wrapping up this season's deer surveys (they are best done in the winter), but stay tuned if you are curious - we will feature a sample infrared animal survey image on this page in the fall.
