The maps on Google are great, but they don’t seem to be updated very often. (And why would they? Things usually don’t change that much!) But after a disaster like the recent hurricanes, it would be nice to see current images. Like, what does the Condado area of San Juan, Puerto Rico look like now?
Are there sites that have maps like Google’s, only with images a few days old instead of a few years old?
NOAA has a page with relatively current aerial photography of areas affected by storms. They made flights over Houston every 12 hours. The coverage is pretty limited, but it’s probably the closest to what you are looking for.
TerraServer has a good collection of maps. It’s more up to date than Google, but nothing approaching days old. It looks like the most recent Puerto Rico images are from May.
A few years ago investigated (near) real time satellite photos. I discovered two things - it wasn’t free and cloud free photos were not all that commonly available. Especially after big storms.
Here is a WaPo article with some recent aerial shots.
