“I made this video as the final project for a class on 3D animation. It depicts the launch of SpaceX’s Falcon 1 launch vehicle from Kwajalein Atoll. eMap helped me by supplying a small satellite picture of the island in question, which saved me months of modeling to make all of the island in 3D. eMap also helped me by providing the tile at a cost that was within my limited student’s budget.”

This features comes from our friends at Yale University, specifically their Golf Coach Colin Sheehan. The links below will take you to three PDFs featuring the oldest aerial imagery eMap has ever seen. The images were collected in 1934 by Fairchild Aerial Surveys and feature three Connecticut golf courses. Hope you enjoy the views of the greens – looks like I would shot a 100+ on any of these courses!
Here is a link to a complete history of Fairchild Aerial Surveys and these three golf course images:
