Google Earth: Before and after the earthquake and tsunami struck Japan

March 13, 2011

Following NASA’s release of images of tsunami struck Japan Google Earth has released before and after images of the earthquake and tsunami.

Google’s images show in more detail than NASA’s the widespread and catastrophic damage the natural disaster has had on Japan and its citizens. The images show the effects on several areas of Japan, including Fukushima nuclear plant, Sendai Airport, Arahama in Sendai and Yuriage in Natori along with others.

These appear to have been recorded on Saturday, Japanese time, before the Number 1 reactor at Fukushima nuclear plant exploded.

Also shown in Google’s gallery is Sendai Airport, which was hit by tsunami waves soon after the earthquake struck on Friday.

Google has released more before and after images of the earthquake and tsunami on a public Picasa album. While the US Geological Survey has upgraded the earthquake from 8.9 magnitude to 9.0.

Brains Byte Back

Brains Byte Back interviews startups, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders that tap into how our brains work. We explore how knowledge & technology intersect to build a better, more sustainable future for humanity. If you’re interested in ideas that push the needle, and future-proofing yourself for the new information age, join us every Friday. Brains Byte Back guests include founders, CEOs, and other influential individuals making a big difference in society, with past guest speakers such as New York Times journalists, MIT Professors, and C-suite executives of Fortune 500 companies.

In this episode of Brains Byte Back, we explore a topic that touches all of us at some point in life: inheritance and the difficult process of managing a loved one’s finances after they pass away. Those who have experienced it would agree that time takes on a new meaning, whether it’s time spent with your loved one or time spent grieving.

Erick sits down with Saeid Kian, the CEO and co-founder of Ribbon, to discuss how his company is looking to give that time back to families by limiting the hours spent completing paperwork, visiting financial institutions, or making multiple calls.

Saeid’s journey to creating Ribbon is a personal one. The loss of his father introduced him to an outdated process he encountered while dealing with money matters following his passing. We’ll hear how his frustration led to a solution that’s not only changing how families navigate the financial obligations of a loved one but also how his time is providing significant value to credit unions by creating a modernized process that’s prepared, efficient and empathic.

It’s a valuable conversation on how technology can make one of life’s hardest moments a little easier.
