NASA's Earth Observatory has been around for some time (at least in

terms of Internet time) and is a great resource for remote sensing and

mapping images. The Daily Images section is interesting enough on its

own and include such recent items as a map of sulfur dioxide emissions

of the Soufriere Hills volcano on Montserrat, and before and after

satellite images of the Three Gorges Dam. Images and maps are usually

topical and come with an interesting explanation.

Other features of the site include a table listing available data sets

according to month. Data sets include sea surface temperatures,

rainfall and chlorophyll. Unfortunately, there are only small world

maps of each dataset on the site.

On a similar theme but updated less frequently is NASA's Visible

Earth. It provides various thematic and remote sensing images of the

planet. This site also provides detailed explanations of the imagery

but provides higher resolution images. Images here can be searched by

sensor or theme.
