Free tsunami satellite photos
DigitalGlobe is making a number of QuickBird satellite images available to media. "Showing 60-centimeter resolution, the satellite images offer the world's highest resolution available to the commercial industry." This photo shows the southwestern coast of Sri Lanka slightly less than four hours after the 6:28 a.m. (local Sri Lanka time) earthquake and shortly after the moment of tsunami impact.
Powerful stuff.
