Balloon & Kite Mapping

Every once in a while, my thoughts turn to the novelty of gathering areal imagery or elevating a wifi or radio repeater using a balloon or dirigible. A number of years ago I was at a Field Day event with COARES (http://www.coares.org/) and they used a weather balloon to hoist up an antenna. It's one those things that keep bouncing around in my head, periodically resurfacing.
