Regional workshop for Middle East-North Africa: data distribution
During the workshop, the GLCN staff distributed to the participants the national coverages of Landsat images (MSS, TM and ETM+ sensors, all bands) and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM)-based elevation data to participants. Data distribution was undertaken under the outreach activities programme promoted by GLCN for its members.
LANDSAT IMAGERY
The coverage of Landsat images for the region takes 1963 scenes and about 300 GB of file size (see summary).
