Data & Maps
The Center for Advanced Land Management Information Technologies (CALMIT) at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln was selected by the USGS as the NebraskaView site and, through this program, provides geospatial data. NebraskaView has developed procedures for archiving and disseminating datasets and means to locate data through the CALMIT website.
An interactive image server allows
users to access Nebraska Reference data such as Roads, Rails and other base layers; DOQQs; some Landsat scenes; Digital Raster Graphics; National Land Cover Data; and AVHRR NDVI. |

Virtual Nebraska is an on-line archive of satellite imagery and aerial photography that gives users the opportunity to view the State's landscape from unique perspectives (e.g., at infrared or microwave wavelengths). Additionally, this web site offers digital elevation data, learning activities, image-processing tools, historical "looks" at over 600 cities, and examples of how remotely sensed data can be used to solve problems. |
