NGS Imagery Used in National Geographic Educational Resources

Friday April 17, 2020

NGS's emergency response imagery, collected after Hurricane Michael, is being used in educational resources for National Geographic. NGS collected the imagery for a variety of uses, including recovery strategies, search-and-rescue efforts, damage assessments, and hazard identifications. In the National Geographic course, students use pre- and post-hurricane imagery to compare the damage done by the hurricane in Mexico Beach, Florida. The STEM-based course is designed for students in grades 6 through 12.
