The responses above are correct as long as the objects in question are all in planview and there is no fisheye distortion from the lens. Basically you need to be looking at a 2-D representation of the object where everything you need to mention is in the same plane. Then you can indeed use a frame of reference to measure other objects in that same plane.Is it possible to take an aerial photo, then using AutoCAD(or something similar) scale the photo? Example: 1in = 1,000 ft
Accurate measurement is not possible with a single photo as 1" of foreground (oblique) or 1" centre (looking straight down) covers a very different distance from other parts of the image.Is it possible to take an aerial photo, then using AutoCAD(or something similar) scale the photo?

Yes, as long as you have something scalable in the photo. For example, you could use a 100’ tape measure to place some markers on the ground or, if you have a parking lot, you could field measure and then use the parking stripes to establish scale.Is it possible to take an aerial photo, then using AutoCAD(or something similar) scale the photo?

Any help is appreciated!
If looking straight down or forward at any two separated objects, I go to google map and double click on one object and get measure distance.Is it possible to take an aerial photo, then using AutoCAD(or something similar) scale the photo? Example: 1in = 1,000 ft
