DirtFlight is not a drone photography service. To get aerial photos of land in Kentucky, enter the county and the APN, or draw the boundary on the map or upload a file. The pack renders in about ten minutes: an outlined top down, four cardinal 3D views, an 18 second orbit video, a hosted listing page and a parcel info sheet, with full resolution files of every view. Nobody flies out, so there is no travel charge, and it works anywhere in Kentucky. Dirt is $29 a parcel and Paydirt $79, or $199 a month for PayDirt Pro (20 Paydirt packs a month). Paydirt adds a contour map, the road frontage hero, the infrared land health view, the full social kit with platform captions, a posting plan and silent reels, pop-out photos from nine directions, the interactive 3D explorer and the measured diligence layers.

On a hillside farm, the flat ground is the asset.
Kentucky land is sold in ridges and hollows. A hundred acres can hold four usable ones, and everybody knows it, which is why the flat bench, the ridge road and the bottom along the creek are what a buyer is looking for. A photo from the county road shows a bank and a gate.
A farm in Pendleton County renders in the same ten minutes as a tract in Fayette County, and ridge, bench and bottom separate immediately on the contour map.
Boundaries are approximate and are not a survey.
One parcel. Everything below.

Where Kentucky land actually trades.
These are among the counties land buyers ask about most.
Any Kentucky county works: type the parcel number, draw the boundary on the map, or upload a KML, KMZ, GeoJSON or zipped shapefile. Try your APN free, and if a parcel will not come up from its number you hear that before anything is charged.

Asked by people selling Kentucky ground.
Which Kentucky counties can you do?
Any Kentucky county works. Send the county and the APN and DirtFlight renders the pack. If a parcel will not come up from its number, you hear that before anything is charged, and you can draw the boundary on the map or upload a KML, KMZ, GeoJSON or zipped shapefile instead. The pack comes back the same.
Is DirtFlight a fit for Kentucky farms, horse farms and hunting land?
Hardwood ridges and hollows, farm and pasture ground, horse farms, hunting and recreation tracts, and mountain acreage in the east. Typical uses there: farms and pasture, hunting and recreation, homesites, and timber.
Will the contour map show ridge and hollow honestly?
It will, and that is the point. The contour map separates ridge top, bench and hollow so a buyer can see how much of the acreage is usable before driving four hours. Sellers of steep ground tend to like that more than they expect to.
Can you show where the road or right of way comes in?
Yes. The access view marks road frontage and the visible track in, which matters most on landlocked or right-of-way access tracts. It shows what is visible from above and is not a legal determination of access.
What is the parcel or map number on a Kentucky property record, and what do I enter?
In Kentucky, the number to look for is the parcel or map number on the property valuation record. Enter the county and the APN as it appears on the tax record, or a street address, and DirtFlight draws the boundary. If a parcel will not come up from its number, you are told before anything is charged, and you can draw the boundary on the map or upload a boundary file instead.
What stands out from above on Kentucky ridges and pasture?
Ridgelines and hollows on the contour map, open pasture against timber, creeks and bottoms, and the road or right of way that reaches the tract. The boundary is drawn on every view, and the imagery is the most recent aerial available for that county, usually one to three years old, with the date on the pack.
