Photo de stock - At more than 4,300 meters 14,000 feet , Mount Shasta is California tallest volcano and part of the Cascade chain of volcanoes extending south from Washington. This computer_generated perspective viewed from the west also includes Shastina, a slightly smaller volcanic cone left of Shasta summit and Black Butte, another volcano in the right foreground. This 3_D perspective view was generated using topographic data from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission SRTM and an enhanced color Landsat 5 satellite image. Topographic expression is exaggerated two times. Landsat has been providing visible and infrared views of the Earth since 1972. SRTM elevation data matches the 30_meter 98_foot resolution of most Landsat images and will substantially help in analyzing the large and growing Landsat image archive. Elevation data used in this image was acquired by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission SRTM aboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour, launched on Feb. 11, 2000. Size: scale varies in this perspective image Location: 41.4 deg. North lat., 122.3 deg. West lon. Orientation: looking east Image Data: Landsat Bands 3,2,1 as red, green, blue, respectively Original Data Resolution: SRTM 1 arcsecond 30 meters or 98 feet, Thematic Mapper 1 arcsecond 30 meters or 98 feet Date Acquired: February 2000 SRTM Pictures from the Real Edge: NASA Posts U.S. Topography Data.
