In the early 1970's, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)
entered into a partnership with the National Aeronautic and
Space Administration (NASA) to provide repetitive global
images of the earth's landmasses taken from a satellite
flown at an altitude of approximately 438 miles. Onboard
the 1999 Landsat7 satellite, the instrument used is an
8-band multispectral scanning radiometer that produces
high-resolution images of the earth using bandwidths
between 15 and 60-meter pixel resolution.
This image was created to provide a false color
enhanced 30 meter resolution LandSat7 image of the San
Gorgonio Pass area in Riverside County, California.

Original Landsat7 image is false color enhanced using
various bands.
Original image was clipped to this study area and projected
in UTM zone 11, meters, NAD27 with a yshift of -3,500,000
by Michael J. Rymer, USGS, Menlo Park, CA. In order to
reproject the image, the image was converted to a grid
using the ArcInfo command "imagegrid". Once the image
was converted to a grid, ArcInfo command "project" was
used to transform the image into is current projection of
UTM zone 11, meters, NAD27 with a new yshift of 0. The
final step is to convert the reprojected grid back into a .tif
formatted image, ArcInfo command "gridimage" was used
for this purpose.
