The North Carolina Department of Transportation has flown damaged areas of the Outer Banks due to hurricane Irene multiple times. This data is now time aware and is available online. We are providing it as an ArcGIS Image Service and an OGC WMS service. This means that you can connect to it using ArcGIS Desktop, programming interfaces such as REST and SOAP, or via a WMS client.

We also have created a simple viewer that will allow to look at the imagery. We've included a swipe tool that allows you to do a comparison of before (2010 imagery) and after (NOAA, NCDOT) Irene. We've also included the time slider tool so that you can view the changes that have taken place since Irene struck. To use the time slider functionality, be sure to zoom in on the red footprints (approx. 1:1000). Also, the 2010 imagery will not be visible until you close the time slider tool.
