Fresh imagery from Christchurch

In the wake of the earthquake that struck Christchurch last month, GeoEye captured some fresh imagery of the area and has now made it available to everyone.
While the imagery is a bit cloudy, it really gives a sense of the widespread damage in the area. These images were captured two days after the quake, on February 24.

To view the imagery in Google Earth, they've made a few files available for you to download:
As Frank mentioned on the Tahina Expedition blog a few days ago you're encouraged to contribute to the families affected by the quake on the Christchurch Earthquake Appeal site.
