Location: Long Island, Bahamas
The red colors in this Landsat false-color infrared composite image of Long Island, Bahamas, give us an indication of its lush vegetation. The different shades of blue, west of the island represent varying water depths in a very shallow area.
Landsat 7 imagery has been used to map the world’s coral reefs.

Landsat made a solid showing at the annual ALA conference (considered “the world’s biggest library event”) in Washington, D.C. this month.
