Summary

DescriptionWhat Doesn't Stay in Vegas? Sprawl.jpg	English: The city of Las Vegas, Nevada has undergone a massive growth spurt. Data from the expansion of Las Vegas was compiled from the fleet of Landsat satellites. The large red areas are actually green space, mostly golf courses and city parks. The image was created using reflected light from the near-infrared, red and green portions of the electromagnetic spectrum (Landsat 5 TM bands 4,3,2 and Landsat 1-3 MSS bands 4,2,1). Landsat data have been instrumental in increasing our understanding of forest health, storm damage, agricultural trends, urban growth, and many other ongoing changes to our land.
