SRTM Shaded Relief Anaglyph of Zagros Mountains. The SRTM was flown on an 11-day mission of the Space Shuttle Endeavour in February 2000. [1] This NASA image used Landsat data to texture-map the surface created using SRTM Elevation data. The Cape Peninsula and Cape of Good Hope, South Africa, are visible in the foreground.
As of 2 April 2016, the entire catalogue of ASTER image data became publicly available online at no cost. [4] It can be downloaded with a free registered account from either NASA's Earth Data Search delivery system [5] or from the USGS Earth Explorer delivery system. [6]
Demo map showing high-resolution SWBD coastlines. The SRTM Water Body Data (SWBD) is a geographical dataset (2003) encoding high-resolution worldwide coastline outlines in a vector format, published by NASA and designed for use in geographic information systems and mapping applications.
Global hydrological data based on the SRTM elevation data. Includes river networks, watershed boundaries, drainage directions, and flow accumulations. USGS Land Cover Institute: Set of links from the USGS for numerous land cover datasets. Although primarily US data, further down the list there is data for other continents.
The images, archived in the United States and at Landsat receiving stations around the world, are a unique resource for global change research and applications in agriculture, cartography, geology, forestry, regional planning, surveillance and education, and can be viewed through the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) "EarthExplorer" website.
Richat Structure by Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). Instead of being a meteorite impact, the landform is more likely to be a collapsed dome fold structure.. Remote sensing is used in the geological sciences as a data acquisition method complementary to field observation, because it allows mapping of geological characteristics of regions without physical contact with the areas being ...
This radar system gathered around 8 terabytes of data to produce high-quality 3-D images of the Earth's surface. SRTM used C-band and X-band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (IFSAR) to acquire topographic data of Earth's land mass (between 60°N and 56°S). It produced digital topographic map products which met Interferometric Terrain ...
The Center for Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) is a United States Geological Survey data management, systems development, and research field center It serves as the national archive of remotely sensed images of the Earth's land surface acquired by civilian satellites and aircraft.
