Photo Identification
•Basics •Shape, tone, location, texture, size, pattern, shadow, association•Buildings, roads, rivers, railroad, fields
•Change over time•Fields and homes, new roads, commercial sites•Time machine. Can see back in time.
•Identify places we haven’t seen before•Cities, states, countries, buildings, rivers, ….

Dasht-e Kevir, Iran
• Dasht-e KevirImage taken 10/24/2000 The Dasht-e Kevir, or valley of desert, is the largest desert in Iran. It is a primarily uninhabited wasteland, composed of mud and salt marshes covered with crusts of salt that protect the meager moisture from completely evaporating.
• Dasht-e Kevir can be found on Landsat 7 WRS Path 162 Row 36, center: 34.62, 54.71.
