I would dare say that most aerial IR is shot in stereo pairs which can =

couple days and hope to end up with stereo pairs.  Stereo pairs are =

photographs; you can use the one camera and take a photo from two =
different (and appropriate) views, of course your subject can't be on =
the move using this technique.
