Using the US Digital Landsat Mosaics, we can increase our understanding of Earth system science and the effects humans have on the global environment. The mosaics were developed primarily from data collected by the Landsat 4 and Landsat 5 satellites as they orbited the Earth ten or more years ago. This historical imagery is a valuable record of the conditions on Earth around the year 1990. The CD ... Full description.

This activity walks users through a technique for documenting change in before-and-after sets of satellite images. The technique can be used for any set of time-series images that are spatially registered to show the exact same area at the same scale. In the chapter, users examine three Landsat images of the Pearl River delta in southeastern China. In the images, users observe changes in land use ... Full description.
