I am looking for a source (free or subscription) of high resolution ground
imagery (10m or better) of the eastern US. I need daily/hourly images. Visual and IR would be ideal. My intent is to observe changes from day to day. Any recommendations? Thanks, OC |

If you can live with 250m, poke around he http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/ Marc |

Thanks Marc. The 250m are marginal, but may serve. I appreciate the link.

Why dont you try Google Earth. Depending on what area you need, the
resolution is amazing. Go to www.google.com , search for google earth, download and install the file. "user" wrote in message ...

While Google earth has amazing resolution, it will not show day to day
changes, and the images are usually over 1 year old... Ramy Wayne Paul wrote: "Oscar Goudriaan" wrote in message ... Why dont you try Google Earth.

Does anyone know how long images are "aged" prior to being made available on
Google Earth? My guess, based on local construction projects, is about 4 years. Wayne http://www.soaridaho.com/ "Ramy" wrote in message ups.com...

Using the same criteria with Google Maps for the Richland, Wa, area, it's less than two years, maybe even one. But, maybe the update cycle is 4 years, even if it's a relatively new image when it is updated. I still think it's amazing I can see which way my motorhome is pointing (can't be sure about the glider trailer, though). -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA * Change "netto" to "net" to email me directly * "Transponders in Sailplanes" http://tinyurl.com/y739x4 * "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation" at www.motorglider.org |
