On the Ground: An Early View After Hurricane Florence

Hurricane Florence made landfall early Friday morning along the coast of the Carolinas and is expected to continue its path along the East Coast over the next several days. Image capture following Hurricane Florence is underway. As we mentioned in our last update, EagleView is deploying both fixed-wing aircraft and unmanned aerial systems (UAS) to capture post-event imagery for our energy, government, and insurance customers. Using proprietary machine learning algorithms, EagleView will be using its vast database of pre-event imagery to determine where damage has occurred and provide our customers with direction as to where they should target their resources. We have received the first batch of high-resolution aerial images. Here are just a few of the images taken in Morehead City, NC:
