GeoEye bring satellite photos of Haiti’s devastation
Satellite images of the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake are now available on Google Earth. The search giant partnered with imagery specialist GeoEye to provide a markup that shows satellite photos of Haiti from around 7:30 a.m. Pacific time today.
The company lets you download the markup here and open it in Google Earth. There’s also a browser plug-in here.
Pictured right is a birds-eye view of the Presidential Palace before and after the quake.
For perspective, below is an on-the-ground view of the palace from The Boston Globe’s Big Picture blog. The building was apparently three stories tall and the second floor completely collapsed, according to Reuters.
