  1. La Comisión Centroamericana de Ambiente y Desarrollo includes:Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama Agreement established in Dec. 1998 to utilize satellite and aircraft data to develop land-use maps of Central America to demonstrate the benefits of Earth science data for the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor. NASA Stennis, JPL, and NASA Marshall Spaceflight Center participate Aircraft and Satellite Data 3 year program

  2. Historical Data Landsat TM Imagery GOES 8 Data Instituto Meteorolgico Nacional Data SIR-C/X-SAR acquired in 1994 on STS-59 and STS-64 World Conservation Monitoring Centre Land Cover Maps

  3. New Data Space Shuttle Mission STS-99 C-band and X-band (IFSARs) will acquire topographic data September 1999 Resolution 30m, vertical accuracy ±16 m

  4. New Data Aircraft Interferometric x-band SAR from Earthwatch Inc. Data Collection began March 16, 1999 in Honduras using a Lear 36 aircraft 20,000 sq km of imagery (all CCAD countries) Scheduled for completion - early June 1999 To be available through the official CCAD representatives via NASA Stennis Resolution 2.5 m, vertical resolution ± 3 m SAR & DEM data assimilated into 7.5’ quadrangle mosaics
