This video, showing a time-lapse satellite view of the Miami area for the past 30 years, was created with Google’s Timelapse, a global, zoomable video that allows users to see how the Earth has changed in some selected area over the past 32 years. It is made out of 33 cloud-free annual mosaics, one for every year from 1984 to the current year, 2016. These are made interactively explorable by Carnegie Mellon University CREATE Lab’s Time Machine library, a technology that allows for creating and viewing videos that one may zoom and pan over and around space and time.
