A series of programs, widely known by the name aerial, is available for the rectification of oblique aerial photographs. The programs have developed over many years, in response to users' needs and increasing computer power. In recent years two major modifications have been introduced: a version to rectify raster images under 16‐bit versions of Microsoft Windows; and a version with an extended range of facilities to run under 32‐bit versions of Windows. The historical development of the programs is described, and the objectives of the most recent versions are explained. The operation of the programs is illustrated with an extended example from recent practice. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
