Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) images of Florida acquired
on April 9, 2000 during Terra orbit 1650. The image at the top is a
color view acquired by the vertical (nadir) camera. It has been
reoriented so that the flight path is from left to right, to facilitate
comparison with the lower image, a stereo anaglyph generated using
275-m resolution red band data from the cameras viewing 45.6 degrees and
70.5 degrees aft of nadir. The anaglyph provides a three-dimensional
effect when viewed using red/blue glasses with the red filter placed
over the left eye. This stereoscopic depth perception and the
variation in brightness as a function of view angle enables scientists
to assess the climate impact of different types of cloud fields. The
plume from a large brush fire that burned about 15,000 acres is visible
at the western edge of the Big Cypress Swamp in southern Florida.
