Listening to NPR while driving to work this morning, I heard interviews with survivors of the recent tornadoes. Some of them were from the Nashville area and I was just yesterday processing air photos from that area (taken in March 2007). I pulled the XY locations of the reported tornadoes from the NOAA storm prediction center and intersected them with the mosaics that I made yesterday.

Sure enough, six of the touchdowns were within the extent of coverage. The images from this air photo campaign are currently in transit (I dropped them at FedEx last night) from our Tampa office to our Portland office where they will be uploaded to WeoGeo. I’m going to ask our guys on that end to prioritize these so that they are available ASAP. I hope that they will be helpful in the disaster recovery efforts.
