Aerial WW1 photos are historical pictorial sources supplementing textual sources. Unfortunately, German aerial photos can normally not be located on maps, because the locations are annotated as grid box codes which refer to legacy German Army war maps. Trying to locate a German WW1 Aerial Photo would require access to German war maps. Genuine German war maps are kept in only a few archives and they are normally not available for this purpose. This a well-known problem, but "How to locate German WW1 Aerial Photos" proposes an easy solution.
