Recent infrared aerial photographs of the Nashville area flooding were taken by TN Department of Transportation. Generally TDOT charges for their imagery, however, according to folks at TDOT, these photos may soon become available to state and local governments for free.
TDOT flew Monday, May 3rd – Saturday, May 7th over major flood areas. As you can imagine, some of the later photos taken Friday and Saturday did not capture the full flood epidemic. The good news is that we have the flight patterns. Hopefully some of you will be able to incorporate these photos into your GIS soon.
No wonder it took all week, they flew all over the place! Oh, and thanks for the screenshots Google Earth. -We obtained all data through a standard query using appropriate communication channels.
