Your Imagery Work Break – Prince Philip’s 2021 Funeral

We love maps.

We love imagery.

We love work breaks.

We hope you like them as well!

As summer settles in over the Northern Hemisphere, it is the season to get outside and stretch your legs. But before you head out on that quick work break, take a few minutes to check out this high-off nadir (meaning it is a side view more than top down) 88-centimeter WorldView-3 image collected over Windsor Castle in the United Kingdom on April 17, 2021 at 12:01 PM local time. On this somber day, preparations would have been underway for the 3:00 PM funeral of Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who passed away on April 9th at the ripe-old-age of 99. Prince Philip served as Queen Elizabeth II consort from February 6, 1952 to his death – which makes him the longest-serving royal consort in history. RIP Prince Philip.

Have a great rest of your workday! ☺
