Oceania Satellite Image Map
Enhanced Physical Giclee Archive Print
This is an enhanced physical satellite image map of Oceania featuring topography and hydrology depicted in exceptional detail. This view
of Oceania, which consists of Australia, New Zealand, and Melanasia, was developed by using multiple whole Earth mosaics of
satellite images collected in 1997 with the NOAA TIROS satellite. It is
cloud free, utilizing two visual bands and three thermal bands. The land
cover image was combined with high resolution hydrology and elevation data
to produce the final image resulting easy to discern natural features such
as rivers, mountains, and forests. The source resolution of this map is 30
arc-seconds (1 pixel per km at the equator). The
international border between Iran Jaya and Papua New Guinea represents the
continental border between Oceania and Asia. This map also features a 10 latitude, longitude grid.
An excellent map for studying the physical geography of the Oceania region.
Each map is available in a high resolution archival museum quality
print. This special printing process is known as Giclee (zhee-CLAY) and is
commonly used to produce museum quality fine art prints. Large format
digital images are printed on premium 10 mil (0.25mm) glossy photo paper,
the result is a brilliant colorful image with a vivid life-like quality.
Pigment based
Epson UltraChrome K3 ink is used providing a lightfastness rating of up to
108 years, guaranteeing minimal noticeable fading over a very long period of
time. Giclee printing is superior to traditional lithography in a number of
ways: colors are brighter, lasts longer, and is a higher resolution.
