Figure 6 : Three-dimensional simulations can be created by draping the Landsat image over a digital map |
|
Figure 7 : 3D simulations can be viewed from any position |
|
Figure 8 : This particular view emphasizes the north facing aspect of the entire site |
|
Figure 9 : Exaggeration of the vertical scale emphasizes the mountain top location that was selected for the site of this new city |
|
Figure 10 : 3D simulations can be processed in different ways |
|
Figure 11 : Detailed version of Fig. 6. Vegetation, hydrology and soil cover can be mapped |
|
Figure 12 : In this image red indicates moisture, and is thus an indication of vegetation cover, while blue represents agricultural land after the harvest. The intense blue feature at top right is an open-cast coal mine. |
