This false color IR image of the Arkansas River Valley, west of Little Rock, was acquired by the ASTER sensor. The image depicts vegetative vigor in increasing shades of red: the brighter the red in the image, the more vigorous the vegetation. Data from this satellite sensor is useful for many natural resource, agricultural, and urban planning applications. The data is available at no cost to AmericaView consortia, like ArkansasView.

This satellite image of cropland near Jonesboro, Arkansas, was acquired by a multispectral sensor onboard the Ikonos spacecraft. The sensor onboard Ikonos is able to resolve objects on the ground as small as one square meter. In this image the amber fields are harvested rice fields, the blue-green fields are soybean fields, the brown fields are seedbeds being prepared for winter wheat. High resolution satellite imagery offers great potential for applications such as precision farming, utility planning, forestry, real estate, disaster relief, etc.

This satellite image of Fayetteville, Arkansas was acquired by a multispectral sensor onboard the QuickBird spacecraft. The QuickBird sensor is able to resolve objects on the ground smaller than one square
meter. This real-color image depicts a mixed urban environment. High resolution satellite imagery offers great potential for applications such as urban planning, precision farming, utility mapping, forestry,
real estate, disaster relief, etc.

This Landsat 7 image of Lake Jack Lee in the Felsenthal National Wildlife Refuge (Ashley and Bradley counties in Arkansas) was the first image acquired and processed by the RAPID project. This image was available to the public on the internet, at no cost, 12 minutes after it's receipt from the U.S. Geological Survey's EROS Data Center.

These pseudo real-color Landsat 7 images, showing flooding along the Black River in northeast Arkansas in March 2002, were acquired and processed using the RAPID program. The first image shows what the area looks like in the dry season. The second image shows the area inundated by the river, and flooded land adjacent to the river. The second image clearly depicts flood damage to Arkansas’ important winter wheat crop This RAPID image was available within a few hours of it's acquisition.

Accurate Agricultural Land-use Maps can help scientists identify potential problem areas, predict where problems are likely to occur in the future, and to model solutions to critical soil and water problems. These three maps of mixed farmland and forest, near Morrilton, were derived from multi-date Landsat 7 ETM+ data and depict intra-year changes in land-use.

TerraHawk

The TerraHawk™ system is a low-cost, turnkey sensor package for airborne imaging. It is a fully integrated imaging system featuring GPS navigation, automated camera/computer function and data management for ease of use. It features autonomous roll, pitch, and yaw camera control at NADIR view and alignment with GPS heading. While the system is suitable for a wide variety of imaging applications, it was specifically designed for the practical implementation and repetitive remote sensing for micromanagement of agricultural crops and other natural resources. The system purchased by CAST is equipped with the DuncanTech MS4100 sensor, a three band CCD sensor: (NIR, visible red, visible green). On May 31, 2006 CAST personnel tested the system.
