GSDNR Landsat - 7 Orthoimage used in agriculture |
In September, 2004, an agricultural magazine with a large readership published an in-depth review of agricultural development in the region of the Chaudière river valley in Quebec. The piece featured a perspective view of the area that was created using a Landsat-7 orthoimage and digital elevation models that were produced by GSDNR. The same magazine anticipates publishing a further article describing how these products are realized and how they can be used to support agriculturalists.
Landsat-7 orthoimages and digital elevation models required for the production of perspective views are produced by the GSDNR program and are available on the Geobase Web site.
