For images lots of image processing book use images from satellite to camera (ground) imagery , they do take permission !! Simple reason is it is an act of revenue so for it to be of value , there is a need for proper validation and that is permission (I would say)
If you use images, forms or instruments published by an author; requires your authorization to appear in a publication, it is not enough to make the appointment of the work already published.
Failure to do so is considered unethical and plagiarism
