Until now, monitoring rock-fall activity has been difficult without a high-resolution basemap image of the Valley walls. Geologists typically would gather geologic data of rock faces by climbing cliffs, which poses obvious dangers not inherent in studying a photo from inside an office. The Yosemite imaging project creates an extremely detailed snapshot in time of present-day geologic conditions and allows for a detailed examination of the cliffs without having to climb them.

“Every rock-fall event begins with the basic documentation: Where was it, how big was it, and why did it happen? Geologists have asked these questions about rock falls in Yosemite for the past 150 years, but now we’re doing it now with a precision that earlier scientists couldn’t have dreamed of,” said Greg Stock, Yosemite National Park geologist. “Sometimes these photos are the only way of ascertaining the location and size of the fall. We can immediately go to the photograph, zoom in on it and see what the mass of rock looked like before it failed. That can tell us a lot about why it failed.”

Jun 03, 2014 Since OS X Yosemite hasn’t been released yet, you’ll need to be in Apple’s Mac Developer Program, or soon the OS X Beta Program, to ditch Silverlight on your Mac when using Netflix.Yosemite.

1. Oct 27, 2014 As well as actually allowing a plug in the Silverlight framework has to work. If it's not compatible with Yosemite then you'd need to run in a virtual (windows) machine. Marked as answer by JonnyD Tuesday, November 4, 2014 1:46 AM. Monday, October 27, 2014 2:41 PM.

Silverlight Yosemite National Park

To execute the intricate photographic process, technological devices took to land and air. Laser-mapping airplanes flew back and forth over the Valley collecting LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data—creating a digital topographic model of the land’s surface. Then, on a single day in May 2008, photographic teams positioned themselves on the landscape to shoot images simultaneously to ensure uniform lighting. Each team produced 500 overlapping shots from a single vantage point, and these images were assembled into 20 high-resolution panoramas. These panoramas were then projected onto a one-meter resolution digital terrain model produced from the LiDAR data in 3-D rendering software. This graphic process unified Yosemite Valley’s walls into a vertical view that was then geographically corrected again for the two-dimensional photography’s limitations. In the final product: A map viewer gets the feeling of taking a 3-D computer flight over the Valley’s eight-mile width.

While plugins like Flash, Silverlight and Java for web-browsers are the spawn of Satan they exist and I have by necessity used them in the past for accessing various websites.

I have recently either upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3, or built a new fresh Yosemite 10.10.3 system (tried it on two different computers) and I am finding that Silverlight appears to be totally 100% dead. Flash (ugh!) and Java both work fine on the same systems in the same web-browsers including Safari 8.0.6.

I was wondering if anyone else has encountered similar problems and may have some suggestions.

This is relating to Silverlight 5.1.40416.0

For Silverlight basically in a web-browser nothing is ever displayed, for example the page https://www.microsoft.com/getsilverlight/Get-Started/Install/Default.aspx merely stays stuck saying -

Os X Yosemite Release Date

One moment, please, while the current Silverlight installation status is determined...

Normally, it would after a short delay show you what version you have installed. Other Silverlight based pages fail to show any Silverlight graphics.
