LIMA stands for Landsat Image Mosaic Of Antarctica.The data was created from over 1,000 Landsat 7 ETM+ scenes, and LIMA consists of two principle mosaics, six stretched versions and one center-filled mosaic. The map viewer displays the mosaics and Landsat scenes in polar stereographic projection using Web Map Service (WMS).Through resampling techniques, each pixel in the 30-m, natural-color bands is divided into four smaller pixels and then merged precisely with the pixels in the 15-m panchromatic band. With each pixel representing 15 m by 15 m (49 ft by 49 ft), scientists can identify features roughly the size of half a basketball court.
