Standard maps provided by GEE. These maps are the bottom layers under the Maji Yetu provided layers:
- A world wide high resolution satellite image (Google Earth) which has a drop down menu (hover over satellite upper right) and click check box.
- Terrain Map with limited labels and 20m contour lines.
An interactive Location Search window facilitates inspection of world wide locations like in Google Earth Satellite Map but is also functional for the Terrain Map. Recognised locations are duplicated in BOLD.
Maji Yetu will limit its layers to the area of interest. For other areas researched by Maji Yetu. For all location monitored by Maji Yetu visit the database.
The scale of the area inspected is in the lower right corner of the GEE image.
The drawing options cannot be saved but with a screenshot it can be saved for later reference.
You can hide and show the geometries as layers hover over ‘geometry imports’ to show and hide geometries
