The Andes by ASTER

ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) is a Terra satellite tool. This satellite was launched in 1999 within the NASA Earth observation program. The ASTER provides detailed maps of surface temperature, height, reflection factor and Earth emissivity.

This image obtained by the ASTER shows part of the Anddeet. The different colors show the differences between vegetation, lava pouring and materials.
