For users of GeoServer, a writeup of the new Animator feature, which creates a creates the animated GIF by using multiple WMS calls is wotth a read at geosolutions blog.
A useful feature especially since wetlands policy relies heavily upon geospatial data for decision making and visualizing wetland losses over time. The cliche "A picture is worth a thousand words" holds true, but a well designed animated feature can concisely make a point across even to the casual observer. Decades of change can be displayed in an intuitive and eye catching format, rather than requiring the viewer to interpret and match multiple still images.
