A bird's-eye view is a View of an object from above, as though the Observer were a Bird , often used in the making of Blueprints , Floor Plan s and Maps . The term can also be used to describe Oblique views, drawn from an imagined Perspective . Before manned flight was common, the term "bird's eye" was used to distinguish views drawn from direct observation at high locations (for example a mountain or tower), from those constructed from an imagined (bird's) perspectives. Bird's eye views as a genre have existed since classical times. The last great flourishing of them was in the mid-to-late 19th century, when bird's eye view prints were popular in the United States and Europe. The terms aerial view and '''aerial viewpoint''' are also sometimes used synonymously with bird's-eye view, but are not as precise: ''bird's-eye view'' almost always specifically means looking straight down, perpendicular to the surface below. The term ''aerial view'' can refer to any view from a great height, even at a wide angle, as for example when looking sideways from an airplane window or from a mountain top. '''Overhead view''' is fairly synonymous with ''bird's-eye view'' but tends to imply a less lofty vantage point than the latter term. For example, in computer and video games, an "overhead view" of a character or situation often places the vantage point only a few feet above human height. See Top-down Perspective . |
