The Planetary Society BlogBy Emily LakdawallaBorup Fiord Pass Field Report: More quality satellite imagesJul. 19, 2006 | 13:19 PDT | 20:19 UTC
Bob Pappalardo emailed me this morning to say that the last set of satellite data for the Borup Fiord Pass field trip had been acquired, and like the previous one it is nearly cloudless and sharp. This one (farthest right below) was acquired ten days after the expedition ended. The strips below are just thumbnails; the team will examine all the strips and decide which ones are likely to be worth purchasing from the USGS. Obviously the July 6 one will be a good choice. This one is excellent too but because it was acquired so long after the expedition ended it's not quite as valuable for the ground truth comparison. They have also been debating whether to buy the July 1 image -- it's not very good, almost completely covered by clouds, but you can at least see the field site through a gap. Bob told me he'd send along the full-resolution data for me to post when he got it.
