Remote Sensing Research and Development
Remote Sensing Research and Development
EROS has been an integral part of Earth observation science since the launch of the first Landsat satellite in 1972 and is renowned for its experience and proficiency in remote sensing technology. We have been providing technical expertise and services to the USGS and its partners across government, industry, and academia for decades.

USGS EROS Archive - Digital Elevation - Why Map the World with Radar?
Have you ever seen a map that shows not only the location of features on the Earth, but also how high or low they are? This information is known as topography, and maps which display elevation information are called topographic maps.
