Custodial history

Fonds was donated to the Archives of Ontario in 1980 and 1985 by Spar Aerospace Ltd.

Scope and content

Fonds consists of low-level oblique aerial photographs undertaken by Northway - Gestalt and their predecessors for a variety of clients.

The photographs are black-and-white photonegatives and colour transparencies of low-level oblique aerial images. These images include stock shots of various geographical regions throughout Ontario for aerial survey purposes as well as for speculative and publicity purposes, such as companies who wanted to document the physical expansion of their plant. Most of the photos are of Ontario, especially in the Toronto area, but a small number are outside the province.

The photographs are arranged in a numbering system devised by Northway Gestalt. The numbering system groups together photographs taken on a particular flight, and within that, groups together images by geographic location and subject.
