We love maps.

We love imagery.

We love work breaks.

We hope you like them as well!

July is already here so I am guessing you are itching to get outside, especially if you are working from home! But before you head out for a quick walk around the block, check out this 40-centimeter GeoEye-1 image collected on May 16, 2019 over Bethpage State Park Golf Course’s Black Course – the site of the 2019 PGA Championship. The PGA Championship is the second of the PGA’s four yearly majors, which is played at a site that changes yearly as well. 2019 was the first PGA Championship hosted by Bethpage and unfortunately the weather was not ideal during the First Round as you can see in this image that the Black Course was cleared at about 12:05PM local time for a severe weather (i.e. lighting) delay. Brooks Koepka won the 2019 PGA Championship by two strokes over Dustin Johnson – can Koepka continue his majors’ dominance in 2020? It will be an interesting COVID-impacted year on the tour for sure!

Have a great rest of your workday!
