On August 31, 2023, the National Geodetic Survey (NGS) began collecting aerial damage assessment images in the aftermath of Hurricane Idalia. Imagery is being collected in specific areas by NOAA aircraft, identified by NOAA in coordination with FEMA and other state and federal partners. Collected images are available to view online via the NGS aerial imagery viewer.
Imagery includes portions of the following areas: south of Perry-Foley Airport, Steinhatchee, Horseshoe Beach, Suwannee, and Cedar Key.
NOAA's aerial imagery aids safe navigation and captures damage to coastal areas caused by a storm. Aerial imagery is a crucial tool to determine the extent of the damage inflicted by flooding, and to compare baseline coastal areas to assess the damage to major ports and waterways, coastlines, critical infrastructure, and coastal communities. This imagery provides a cost-effective way to better understand the damage sustained to both property and the environment.
