Google Earth Physics?

I haven't had time to carefully read this preprint since I'm at a workshop, but this looks kinda fun and intriguing. The authors are using Google earth images on boats with wakes behind them to estimate the velocity of these sailing vessels.

Abstract: Google Earth photographs often show ships and their wakes in great detail. We discuss how the images can be used to calculate the velocity of these ships.

Hum....

Zz.
