This layer has all the NOAA imagery properly orientated and georeferenced now. So after installing this add-on, turn the layer on in the layer manager and zoom in to see the imagery of the area.
Installation:
- Copy the zip file into your World Wind 1.3 folder and unzip. into that folder, it will place the files in the right locations.
- Then start World Wind and open the layer manager and select the Hurricane Katrina layer.
- Note: You should turn OFF your Images / High Resolution Imagery layer.
Note: The imagery is NOT yet fully done. We are still missing / waiting on some more meta data for the rest of the imagery. This meta data is how we propery align and tile the images.
