Dr. Charles Flagg took another flight over the Breach at Old Inlet on Fire Island on November 28, 2017. The flyover mosaic is available below.
Mark Lang has assembled all the geo-referenced photo mosaics into a kml file that can be viewed using Google Earth. By clicking between images and using the fade in-out button you can clearly see how the inlet is changing with time. An offline version of the KML file is available as KMZ. The full size image is also available.
For more information, please visit Dr. Charles Flagg’s website.
Is there a way to do a simple slide show of the evolution of the breach. the google Earth approach seems to be stuck in only one date no matter what I do.
Thanks
You may find it easier to download the KMZ file, open it in Google Earth and make sure all boxes are selected on the left. Then a time slider will appear near the top left corner. We will work to fix the KML file so it displays easier. Thank you for the feedback!
