More imagery from Pakistan flooding

Unlike the imagery that we showed you last week that covered a large area of Pakistan, the imagery we're showing today is quite zoomed in. However, it really shows the devastation facing the area.

This image comes courtesy of GeoEye, who published the image on their site yesterday.

Too see the imagery up close, you can view the high-res version on their site, or download this KML file to see it as an image overlay. Viewing it in Google Earth and toggling to see the before/after comparison is quite shocking.

As before, we encourage you to visit Network for Good to see how you can help with the flood relief efforts.
