Get Landsat images for Ground2K

[rhumbaflappy]

Hi all.

Here's an interesting way to get satellite images for Ground2k:

http://wms.jpl.nasa.gov/wms.cgi?request=GetMap&layers=global_mosaic&srs=EPSG:4326&width=2048&height=2048&bbox=97.5,13.7109375,97.96875,14.0625&format=image/png&version=1.1.1&styles=visual


or...

You may need to be persistant to get the images... they often fail. Save the image as bitmap, and convert to 8 bit in a paint program.

The above example is a single LOD8 image.

The bbox is west,south,east,north.
