JASON Project: Flying over the Channel Islands
By using Landsat-7/ETM+ data and USGS DEM Elevation data, we are able to take a virtual tour of the Channel Islands and the coast of California. For more information on the Channel Islands, please visit http://www.channel.islands.national-park.com.
Using data from the Landsat satellite and elevation data from USGS, we are able to virtually fly around the Santa Barbara-Channel Island area. This animation was created for the JASON Project.
