New Zealand Earthquake Visualized in Google Earth

A strong earthquake that hit Christchurch, New Zealand on September 4 was one of the worst to hit New Zealand in 80 years. No deaths have been reported, but the earthquake caused devastation throughout the region of Canterbury.

Flickr has put up a special page with some of the best user images of the earthquake, which show great damage on the buildings and structures in Christchurch.

In addition, Google Earth Blog has posted a neat Google Earth visualization which uses data from Geonet. To see it, you must install Google Earth, download this KMZ file, and click the “play” button in the upper-left corner.
