Satellite Plays Important Role in Hurricane Harvey's Aftermath
Unlike the aftermath of Hurricane Celia in 1970, the last major storm to hit South Texas, satellite technology played a major role in Hurricane Harvey. Satellite imagery was significantly important, both before and after the storm. In addition, on-the-scene news reporting, ad hoc data communications to support government and relief organizations, and the restoral of banking and retail point of sale networks couldn’t have happened without satellite technology. Sometimes you have to view life through the lens of a disaster to appreciate how much we rely on satellite communications.
