Paris
The Landsat scene above shows Paris from above, facing (roughly) south
looking across the city and the Seine River which snakes through the center
of Paris. The Landsat data is shown with shortwave infrared (TM Band 5)
displayed as red, near infrared (TM Band 4) as green, and visible green
(TM Band 2) as blue. This wide spectral range results in urban features such
as concrete buildings and roads to appear as dark grey/black, water as dark
blue, while green spaces are vegetation coverage such as grass and trees.
