Industry: Google Shows Pre-Katrina Photos for New Orleans 1 comment [+]

Several blogs discuss the introduction of pre-Katrina photos for New Orleans in Google Earth and Google Maps. From the Google Earth Blog: "The previous imagery was directly after the storm struck, and was of inferior quality. Although the imagery of New Orleans is from pre-Katrina now, it is of better quality. If you have the Plus or Pro version of Google Earth you have the option to load two sets of post-Katrina imagery by logging out of the primary database." See also this entry from The Map Room and the Slashdot's discussion. The Earth is Square tells us NASA World Wind still has the old imagery. Update: 04/03 14:05 GMT by S : Google now updated their data: "In other words, Google Earth has just updated its imagery for New Orleans following a hue and cry after it became widely noticed that the existing imagery in the default layer was from before hurricane Katrina."
