The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF), created a Landsat mosaic of Antarctica (LIMA) from more than 1,000 Landsat ETM+ scenes. This collection contains the individual Landsat scenes that were used in the LIMA mosaic. In support of the International Polar Year (IPY 2007-2008), LIMA is a virtually cloudless, seamless, and high resolution satellite view of Antarctica. The mosaic can be accessed through the LIMA.USGS.GOV site.
