How to search the picture series
You can search thousands of aerial pictures through several entrances.
- For detailed descriptions, refer to the catalogue in the iBOOK LOOKING AT HISTORY FROM THE AIR [Flygspaning efter Historia], which includes Esse Ericsson’s archive of Aerial Photographs. The catalogue is in Swedish and covers only Ericsson's photographs. Each picture number is searchable in The Lab for further options.
- Also, you can browse The IK Foundation’s Picture Collection site, which is organised by geographical districts. NOTE: The term “district” is an approximate geographical location; many pictures cover border areas or larger regions, and district borders may change over time. For specific locations, it is recommended to search a broader geographical area.
- The most flexible method is Map search. Select Map or Satellite view to search specific environments (e.g., coast, rural, urban, forests) or a particular geographical name. Click the desired icon on the map and choose ”Fly to the Picture Collection” to access that district in the Picture Gallery or ”Fly to the Index” for descriptions in the iBOOK catalogue.
The IK Foundation donated physical archival materials, including pictures, writings, maps, notes, and research papers, to the Swedish National Archives (Riksarkivet) in March 2021. You are welcome to search the physical collection. ”The IK Foundation Kollektion av flygfotografier”
