UPDATE:
Revamped the add-on to make it more Hurricane general since we have now added Ophelia imagery of the Carolinas.
I also have a web page up here finally. I have an installer (it should pick the right install location) and the list is below in this post.
(Ok Bull, update the wiki page now too )
Ok, after several days of pulling data together and processing it and georeferencing it. We have finnaly finished and made public, a data layer for World Wind.
This layer has all the NOAA imagery properly orientated and georeferenced now. So after installing this add-on, turn the layer on in the layer manager and zoom in to see the imagery of the area.
Note: The imagery is NOT yet fully done. We are still missing / waiting on some more meta data for the rest of the imagery. This meta data is how we propery align and tile the images.
Here are some samples from the layer:
Mississippi Before:
[attachmentid=1292]
Mississippi After:
[attachmentid=1293]
New Orleans Before:
[attachmentid=1294]
New Orleans After:
[attachmentid=1295]
Rita After:
[attachmentid=1361]
Getting and installing the add-on:
Download installer file
Copy the zip file into your World Wind 1.3 folder and unzip. into that folder, it will place the files in the right locations.
Then start World Wind and open the layer manager and select the Hurricane Katrina layer.
Note: You should turn OFF your Images / High Resolution Imagery layer.
Data Sources:
The Katrina imagery was taken by NOAA and georeferenced and processed by telascience.org. http://katrina.telascience.org/
New Orleans before is the 2002 Urban Area Imagery done by the USGS
The mississippi before imagery was done by the National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) (http://www.apfo.usda.gov/NAIP.html)
