I can’t save you a hundred million dollars.

(sorry)

But I want to do my part to help government run

‘lean’ and more efficiently.

Aerial Photography

NO

Not really

YES

Why?

Can we do better?• Research past aerial

photography projects

• Gather input from air photo users

• Develop a program “blueprint”

Funding• Approximately $1million per year to meet

most government and private sector needs

• But many times that already spent every year

• Can be cost-neutral

How can you Help?

• Listen to the experts

• Help us understand how to turn our ideas into reality

• Use existing funding for its intended purpose
