Satellites captured an exodus from the Iraqi city of Sinjar, where at least 500 Yazidis were massacred by ISIS in August. Fleeing refugees were seen traversing steep mountain switchbacks to escape Islamic militants in this photo taken on September 15 this year

The Spui Locks at IJmuiden in Netherlands were captured in this shortlisted photo taken on August 27 this year

Aerial views, such as this photo taken in May, allowed rescue decisions to be made during flooding in Gunja, Croatia

The Defence and Intelligence community relies on images of airports for pattern analysis. Pictured, Boeing Everett Factory, Washington

A spectacular aerial shot of the Henan Coal Mine in China. Satellite shots can indicate the plant's emission and fuel stockpile levels

Aerial shots are used to monitor large areas of water and understand the impacts of building a new dam. Above, Itaipu Dam in Paraguay

This high-resolution image was taken above the Syrian-Turkish border town of Kobane in November this year - where fierce fighting has taken place between resident Kurdish fighters and the invading ISIS militants

Aerial views also let mining companies monitor progress over time. Above, Bayan Obo Mining District, western Inner Mongolia, China

Geologists can save time and exploration costs by analysing imagery with shortwave infrared bands that identify specific minerals in order to focus their attention on the most promising areas. Above, a photo of the Rainbow Range of mountains, British Columbia, Canada

Saving San Diego via satellite: Aerial views, such as this one taken above San Diego County, California, on May 15 2014, were used to monitor the wildfires' progress and assess damage

Satellite shots are also a way of monitoring capacity and are used to determine the type and number of shipping containers being held in Garden City, Georgia, USA, above

Smoke can obscure the view of those on the ground responding to events such as fires and volcanoes, making satellite imagery crucial. Above, smoke rises from the crater of Mount Sinabung, Indonesia, in January 2014

Satellite photographs can also be used to enhance experiences - giving attendees of Glastonbury an astonishing aerial view of the festival

Satellite imagery of operational mines, such as The Diavikk Diamond Mine in Canada, (pictured) allows for environmental impact assessment
