I can't find a link to the story at the moment (I'm on mobile), but I read recently they've started doing just that - doing image analyses on aerial/sat map data - to find cars and other things submerged in the Bayous here in Houston. Previously [1] they used more on-site resources, such as sonar, drones, and people in kayaks; etc.

- Nicholas_C 7y agoI found a skateboard in a smaller bayou this past weekend in fairly good condition. I can’t imagine what else is down there. There is also a very surprising amount of fish in the bayous, including loads of plecos (aquarium sucker fish).

- Nicholas_C 7y agoNever heard of that! I can’t imagine how many weapons one would find at the bottom of the Houston bayous.
