This is enhanced image of Circa year 2000 Landsat 7 cloud-free image composite (first). Reference multispectral imagery from the first available year, typically 2000. If no cloud-free observations were available for year 2000, imagery was taken from the closest year with cloud-free data, within the range 1999–2012.
