The USGS Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center produces near-real-time estimates of annual herbaceous land cover for the Great Basin, Snake River Plain, Wyoming, and contiguous areas in the United States. Estimates are based on enhanced Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (eMODIS) Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data at 250-meter resolution.

The Indian Space Research Organisation’s (ISRO) Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) Resourcesat-1 (2003- present) and Resourcesat-2 (2011-present) satellites provide multispectral images at 24- (LISS-3) and 56- ( AWiFS ) meter resolution.

Digital Line Graphs (DLGs) are digital vector representations of cartographic information derived from USGS maps and related sources.

One of the most fundamental characteristics of a SAR system is its frequency (or frequencies) of operation (i.e., the frequency of the radar electromagnetic pulse it emits and receives); radar frequencies range from 3 MHz to 300 GHz.

The Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) was launched on January 24, 2006 by the Japan Aerospace and Exploration Agency (JAXA) and was operational until May 12, 2011. ALOS captured 6.5 million scenes during its five years of operation.
