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.
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.
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 ...
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.
ASTER data is used to create detailed maps of surface temperature of land, emissivity, reflectance, and elevation. [1] In April 2008, the SWIR detectors of ASTER began malfunctioning and were publicly declared non-operational by NASA in January 2009. All SWIR data collected after 1 April 2008 has been marked as unusable. [2]

NPScape United States Department of the Interior National Park Service NPScape is a landscape dynamics monitoring project that provides landscape-level data, tools, and evaluations for ...
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.
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.
