http://cbc.rs-gis.amnh.org/ - Remote Sensing Resources
=20
The American Museum of Natural History's Center for Biodiversity and
Conservation (CBC) announces the public release of a website to promote =
the
use of remotely sensed imagery (such as satellite imagery and aerial
photography).=20
=20
Did you know that it is currently possible to freely download and view
satellite images for almost any location on the planet? Developments in
satellite image archives and viewers have made it easier than ever to =
access
and utilize this wealth of data. The CBC's Remote Sensing Resources =
website
focuses on the practical aspects of accessing, visualizing, and =
processing
satellite imagery. The site is designed with beginners in mind, but also =
has
many features that are of interest to more experienced users. It is a =
work
in progress and it is our intent to craft it to meet the needs of a =
broad
community interested in using satellite imagery. Your feedback about
existing content and suggestions for future content would be =
appreciated.
Over time the site will grow as we add sections on species distribution
modeling, GIS, conservation-focused software tools, and others.=20
=20
The site is divided into four main sections:
* Remote sensing guides - CBC designed guides to locate, download, and =
view
satellite imagery.
* Training resources - Material and information for remote sensing =
training
courses and workshops offered by the CBC and other organizations=20
* Interactive tools - Tools to illustrate fundamental remote sensing
concepts
* Net resources - Links to an array of remote sensing information =
available
on the Internet
=20
The URL for the site is: http://cbc.rs-gis.amnh.org/=20
=20
Please forward this announcement to colleagues and friends.

Questions and comments about the site can be sent to Ned Horning
