BAII is committed to taking off the shelf technology and applying it to the creation of those everyday business solutions that require elevated imagery All at a very reasonable cost.

BLOG: Belt's Elevated Photography of Southern California

Our Business:

Besides the imagery and engineering experience we also have retail and customer relationship experience - we have had the face to face interface that  sadly, our increasingly automated world seems to  be getting away from. 

After looking at what's wrong and more importantly, what's right about other methods of imagery collection, I decided I would create a company that is:

• Highly responsive to customer needs
• Giving the customer useful products they don't normally get:

1. Very highly detailed images not possible by airplane or satellite imaging
2. Images under various formats
3. Create project photography at a revisit rate unmatched by any other method

Who We Are -  BIO:

The founder, Michael Belt,  brings over 30 years of experience working for those organizations involved with  military intelligence, Department of Defense  agencies and now this project.

Born in upstate New York, Mike began his career with the US Army, working as an imagery analyst for over 20 years and followed his service with a decade of  systems and test engineering.

A private pilot with aerial photo experience, his career includes crisis monitoring,  far east estimates, and preparation for space flight aboard the nation’s space shuttle system.

Also, an avid sailor, 6 years after achieving the difficult task of delivering his sailboat "uphill"  to San Francisco from southern California, Mike left San Francisco and headed back down to San Diego on a coastal journey aboard his ketch the Taita Falcon, - arriving a timely 3 days later.

As business expands for BAII's Phase I -activities will lead to Phase II operations; an aerial imaging platform model. The inclusion of these operations will have a mapping capability with GIS applications

Phase III will include Phases I and II with increased aircraft and even greater mapping capabilities being added on - along with an increased staff to meet the new demands.
