The Mapping Working Group is focused on enabling situational awareness improving health and human security in Japan.

The mission of the Mapping Working Group is to enable situational awareness improving health and human security in Japan, with a focus on the Health Capacity Zones most impacted following the March 11 earthquake/tsunami, and the failures of damaged nuclear reactors emitting radiation from the Fukushima power plant.

Map where people missing

I think EC JRC (from Europe) is a great map showing what numbers of people are missing where the tsunami came ashore.  It has major highways, city names.

Fukushima Nuclear Maps - Stay out - no fly - no people

Mon, 2011-03-21 17:45 — AlMac99

Attached # 1 is not all that great a map, but it is a starting perspective.

Attached # 2 has not that much more detail, but may be good enough.

Attached # 3 I called "unknown" because it is not obvious from the context if the map is of Fukushima Dai-ichi which has most serious problems, or Fukushima Dai-ni which also has serious nuclear accident issues.

Attached # 4 shows what changed, thanks to comparing images from two satelites, to see what changed one picture to later one.

Animated map shows radioactive material's path across Pacific toward California

Thu, 2011-03-17 16:27 — Katie Rast

Austria's Federal Ministry for Science and Research has released this map showing radioactive material from the disaster in Japan moving across the Pacific Ocean toward California.

As The Times' Ralph Vartabedian reported, small amounts of radioactive isotopes from the quake-crippled Japanese nuclear power plant are being blown toward North America. Though they could reach California by Friday, officials said they see no health danger and stressed that any radiation reaching here would be well within safe limits.

Federal officials are monitoring radiation levels in places such as Anaheim, Bakersfield and Eureka.
