NOAAoverlays-netlink.kml

Through some serious efforts by NASA/CMU/Google, this file has been created doing basic alignment on all images currently available from NOAA . Please note that the imagery it points to are 4Kx4K files (very large) so only download what you really need.

Also please note that this is now (as of Sept 5th) a network link that will grab the latest version of the file every few hours. This means that you can save it to your My Places area and whenever you start the program and enable it, it will update.

(As of 3pm PDT, Sep 9, the file this network link points to has been updated to "v21" and contains _all_ NOAA imagery flown. This may be the last of the direct NOAA imagery as they move to another method of acquiring data... more details as we know more)

DG-Aug31-VBR.kmz
We are now offering a dynamic-VBR-overlay of the August 31st Digital Globe data on top of Google Earth. This is running on an experimental server and uptime is not guaranteed.

After you zoom into New Orleans, 2 seconds after your motion stops, it will fetch tiled overlays. You can adjust the transparency of the whole group by selecting the well-labeled folder containing the overlays. Each time you move and then stop, it will update.

Space Imaging Sept2nd overlays

We've just posted a collection of 2Kx2K overlays From Space Imaging's Friday Sept. 02nd Ikonos flyover. Cities covered include: New Orleans, Biloxi, Gulfport, Mobile, and Pascagoula.

--
Also, maps.google.com is now showing the same DG imagery for New Orleans. Search for "New Orleans" and hit the red "Katrina" button.

I wonder if you can help me answer a question. I am new to Google Earth.
You obviously know what you are doing.
I am looking at a residential area in Toronto Canada. Is there any way to tell the currency date of the image. When I click the "HELP" on the task bar there is a section that says "ABOUT GOOGE"
Pushing thi shows a "build date" of September 1/05. Is that the date of the image or some date on my computer history??

THANKS IF YOU CAN HELP.

Question.....Are persistant overlays permanant? Or can you revert back to the orig. map, overlay etc? Being very new, I am not sure about these new tiled images or SI images.

Can't say I can help you there! my french must be SO rusted - SO BAD, that I'd agree to your scenario being:- what's the date? I'm under a crashed plane and youre in a spot of bother! Why don't you just click onto another flight path, surely that would make you feel better. Code:
