One meaning of oblique - there are other definitions, in grammar, physiology and geometrical - is indirect or misleading. Thus you might say a politician gave oblique answers to questions in an interview. Obtuse also has meanings in geometry, though a common meaning refers to a person who lacks sharpness of intellect, is not clear in expression or thought. There is also the sense in which a person might be deliberately obtuse in order to annoy or mislead.

What is the difference between oblique aerial photos and just normal oblique photos?

oblique photoThe difference is oblique photos are at a lower angles while aerial photos are at a higher angle Improved Answer:"The biggest differences in Oblique aerial photos and normal oblique photos are perspective. A photo is classified as Oblique when the imaging sensor is capturing the photos at a user angle greater than 0 degree in an upward or downward angle.When Oblique images are captured in an aerial platform they are set at a downward angle typically between 15-45 degrees. The aerial platform is capturing data at altitudes typically ranging between 3500-5500 AGL. Camera, lens length, firing angle and capture altitude will all determine the area the photo covers.So when you compare oblique photos captured in a terrestrial manner and ones captured in the air the main difference in what you get at the end of the day is your perspective."
