A real-time web-based flight simulator is developed for navigating over the flood inundation map of Des Moines, Iowa. The web-based interface utilizes Google Earth and Google Maps API and allows users to control a helicopter of the flood map using arrow keys. A recent update allows users to control the helicopter using their iOS devices (iPhone, iPad & iPod Touch).
