SATELLITE IMAGE MAP OF PAKISTAN

Additional Details

Description

72 mosaic Landsat satellite scenes have been put together to create this satellite image map of Pakistan. The satellite scenes were first used to provide base maps for the compilation of geologic and general terrain data in support of the Coal Resource Exploration and Assessment Program (COALREAP). Originally the image maps were limited to internal government use, but subsequent requests from the public for the release of the geo-corrected image maps and their digital data led to the publication of these maps through a USGS grant. These maps are excellent for examining such geologic and geomorphic features such as the bending of the crust from the northerly movement of the Indian subcontinent. Map scale is 1:2,000,000 and measures 40"x37.5".
