Speakers notes

Part of a presenation given at NACIS 2013: https://github.com/springmeyer/cloudless-nacis2013

  • Bahamas - land really pops due to blurred shallow nearshore
  • Australia - rich hues
  • Great Barrier Reef - Extremely subtle textures visible + water mask helps show smallest reefs
  • Amur River - effectively shows many combined flood events / murky water in delta
  • Taiwan - deforestation clearly visible
  • Tibet - Jewel lakes
  • Angola/Namibia Border - Not a processing bug but rater dramatic landuse differences along border
