The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’sAqua satellite captured this image of Pakistan. This image uses a combination of infrared and visible light to increase the contrast between water and land. Water appears in varying shades of blue, vegetation is green, and bare ground is pinkish brown. Clouds are bright turquoise.

What is the resolution of these images?
ReplyDeleteHas any one tried to perform change detection on these satellite images?
Dear We havent personally tried change detection analysis on these, but have provided these images to some researchers recently working on similar directions. As far as resolution is concerned, the following metadata will be helpful for you:
