Lecture Series - Part I

Facilitator: Dr. Kathleen Sullivan Sealey

Dr. Sealey demonstrated the power of “Mapping The Bahamas Using Landsat 7 Imagery”. This project was initiated by the United States Geological Survey and is the first step in a larger project to model sustainable use and ecological function of tropical bank systems. Simply put, this satellite provides imagery in various ultra-violet bands that allows the data experts to extract very specific data layers both on land and in the sea.
