DOQQ

DOQQ or Digital Orthographic Quater-Quad is a digitized image that has been taken from the air. DOQQ is used to measure the true distance between places and things. It is the actual picture of a piece of land. Also this kind of map is corrected with the use of pixels that will help with the latitude and longitude lines. The map above is a DOQQ of a place in North Carolina, which if you look at it kind of looks like a google maps or earth image.
