Color-infrared composite of Landsat data for the Death Valley regional flow system, Nevada and California, 1992
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
This data set was created to determine phreatophyte boundaries for use in the report, "Ground-water discharge determined from estimates of evapotranspiration, Death Valley regional flow system, Nevada and California".
Description
The raster-based, color-infrared composite was derived from Landsat Thematic Mapper imagery data acquired during June 1992 for the Death Valley regional flow system. The image is a single-channel, parallelepiped classification that when displayed using a 256-color color table shows a simulation of a color-infrared composite.
The data set was used in determining phreatophyte boundaries for a ground-water evapotranspiration study. The raster-based, color-infrared composite (CIR) was derived from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery data acquired during June 1992 for the Death Valley ground-water flow system, Nevada and California. The image is a single-channel, parallelepiped classification that when displayed using a 256-color color table shows a simulation of a color-infrared composite (Beverley and Penton, 1989).

TM channels 2, 3, and 4 are used in the classification process. The wavelengths of these channels correspond to those used for a CIR composite. The data range of each channel is divided into eight divisions.
The 512 possible combinations are then reduced to 256. A color table of red, green, and blue values is created for display of the image. Sixteen possible color values exist for each color.
These values are scaled between 0 and 255. The image is reduced from more than 16 million colors to 256 colors.
