Why are they displayed in cyan (as opposed to some other color) on this image with the 5-4-3 band combination? Question 11.2: What do the brighter places on the 10-10-10 image correspond with? Why do these places mostly appear brighter than their surroundings in the 10-10-10 image? Question 11.3: Where are the cirrus clouds in this section of northern Ohio in the image? Why are they so hard to see in the regular 5-4-3 image? Question 11.4: What kinds of features on the Cleveland waterfront cannot be distinguished at the 30-meter resolution you’re examining in the Landsat image? Question 11.5: Conversely, what specific features on the Cleveland waterfront are apparent at the 30-meter resolution you’re examining in the Landsat image?
Question 11.6: Which one of the two band combinations best brought the stadium and its field to prominence? Question 11.7: Why did this band combination best help in viewing the stadium and the field? ( Hint: You may want to do some brief online research into the nature of the new stadium and its field.)
