Since March 11, 2011 I have been following the events in Japan through maps. Some maps have been poor and misleading (Nuclear Fallout Map, An Irresponsible Radiation Map), others have been informative (ESRI's Earthquake and Tsunami maps, ), and others just leave you breathless (Satellite Photos Before and After). All of them help paint a picture of the event. Combine them with the news reports, photos and videos and you can't help but be amazed.
