How to use this map

1. Enter address, city, state in the address box and click Find -OR - drag map with mouse or click on compass in the upper left to pan and use the in/out buttons above to zoom.

2. Click a camera icon to view before and after images (not available in all areas).

I think there has been a lot of valuable contributions that have come from Katrina like people being able to donate online, ebay autions, blogs and even sat radio and tv setting up channels to be used for communication. So your right technology can certainly help out in times of need.
