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.
SWBD data covers the Earth's surface between 56° southern latitude and 60° northern latitude. It is distributed in ESRI shapefile format, divided into 12,229 files, each covering one 1°-by-1° tile of the Earth's surface. SWBD data is in the public domain and is made available online for free download by NASA.
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]
NASA Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) Digital Elevation Model (DEM): These are bitmap files released into the public domain, compressed into zip file format, which contain the digital topographic data of a given region. The zone covered by the DEMs resulting from the SRTM runs from latitude 56° South to latitude 60° North. These files ...
DTED (or Digital Terrain Elevation Data) is a standard of digital datasets which consists of a matrix of terrain elevation values, i.e., a Digital Elevation Model.This standard was originally developed in the 1970s to support aircraft radar simulation and prediction.
This is a list of free and open-source software for geological data handling and interpretation. The list is split into broad categories, depending on the intended use of the software and its scope of functionality. Notice that 'free and open-source' requires that the source code is available and users are given a free software license.
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 ...
