While Frank points out that “Google and NOAA” have released an imagery layer for Hurricane Ike after-Imagery.  I thought it would be good to point out that you are NOT limited to Google for this imagery.

You can get the imagery right from NOAA, if you know where to look (It is actually the National Geodetic Survey that is doing the imagery).  Here is the Ike imagery page and also the Gustav imagery page.  You can download the individual images or whole paths of the fly-over imagery.

And if you don’t feel like downloading the imagery and doing the processing yourself, You can view it online as well as in NASA WorldWind with the ZoomIt! layer.

One thing I noticed though while looking at the imagery… the GE imagery.. well, it seems sub-par in quality.  Not to mention it is different imagery that what I have seen from the NGS.  Example:

As you can see these two images are of the same location and about the same altitude.  But they are different times of the day (if not different days) as you can tell from the foam on the water.  But if you look closer you see the “Public Imagery” on the right has a better processing and is much cleaner and sharper in the fine details.
