Queensland

Here are two maps, link, from NASA.gov that show the area a year prior and during the flood.  The purpose is it shows how much of the area has been affected by the flood. The contrast of colors make it simple, easy, and quick for comparison.

These maps will not be useful to actual recover or relief workers since they are so zoomed out. They were designed to compliment the article listed below them. If you click on the links on the lower right, you will rotate through the different images of Queensland.

These maps can be used by relief and aid workers since you can plot out the area and really make a determination about where the flooding is in Rockhampton.
