The purpose of this resource is to familiarize students with the importance of perspective and various scales of remotely sensed data. Students create a 3-D model of an area and develop a classification system for the landforms in their model. The maps can then be used to answer certain questions about the environment.

The purpose of this resource is to help students understand the connection between remote sensing, computer imagery, and land cover assessment. Students translate their maps created in the beginning activity into digital code and exchange the digitized versions of their maps with students in another school.

This
NASA
Module
investigation
compares
and
contrasts
physical
processes
that
occur
on
Both
Earth
and
Mars.
Students
are
given
unidentified
images
of
Earth
and
Mars.
Their
task
is
to
arrange
the
images
into
pairs
that
show
evidence
of
similar
physical
processes.
Then
they
identify
each
image
as
one
of
Earth
or
of
Mars
by
comparing
and
contrasting
physical
features
that
they
observe
in
the
image
pairs.
