#language en This page contains information about Nootka Island itself, such as land features, geographical characteristics, and metadata about the backing information and data sources. == Satellite imagery == === Relative age of different imagery sets === Based on how much forest has been logged, we can tell how old certain satellite imagery is relative to other imagery. For now we'll use "oldest, really old, old, new, really new, newest" to differentiate (these characteristics are globally unique, not just within specific mapping tools): * Google ** newest: z=12 and lower ("zoomed out") ** really new: z=13 and higher ("zoomed in") * Yahoo! ** really old: zoom=13 and lower ("zoomed out") - forests still look nice ** new: zoom=14 and higher ("zoomed in") - very close to "really new" (Google); note that some eastern parts of the island are still "oldest" * Bing ** old: lvl=13 and lower ("zoomed out") ** oldest: lvl=14 and higher ("zoomed in") ---- CategoryNootkaProject
