An ultra high quality world satellite image map print with clouds.
A stunning "Pacific Rim view" of Planet Earth compiled from a wide array of NASA satellite-based observations. This high quality giclee print of the entire Earth consists of a seamless true-color mosaic of satellite data including: land surface, oceans, and clouds. Natural cloud cover provides a perspective of the Earth as it appears from space. Clouds show frontal systems, storms, and tropical thunderheads. This view of the world is displayed in a Geographic projection with the central meridian at 150° E.
A multitude of various data sources are combined to produce this maps unique detail of the planet. Land imagery is based on data collected by NASA's MODIS satellite instrumentation. Antarctica imagery is from the RAMP II dataset (Radarsat Antarctic Mapping Project Elevation Model). Topographic Shaded-relief is based on NASA SRTM elevation dataset. The cloud overlay is a composite of two days of imagery collected in visible light wavelengths and a third day of thermal infra-red imagery over the poles.
Each map is produced as a detailed museum quality archive print. This special printing process is known as Giclee (zhee-CLAY) and is commonly used to produce very high quality fine art prints. Printed on Archive Paper, Luster Photo Paper, Matte Canvas or Metal.
