Land use land cover unsupervised classification derived from Landsat 9 OLI-2 TOA imagery acquired in spring 2023. The image shows the city of Lincoln, Nebraska. Lighter blue and greens show vegetation and agriculture, and darker blues show the urban area (left) invading the river (right). Heavily urbanized areas nearby rivers are at higher risk of flooding and are candidates for the Audubon Great Plains' environmental restoration and flood mitigation initiative.

Albedo derived from Landsat 8 & 9 OLI data throughout summer 2019 to 2023. White beige pixels signify effective solar radiation reflection (higher albedo), followed by peach, violet, and dark purple. This data is input for the InVEST Urban Cooling model, which calculates heat dissipation efficiency. Light-colored roofs and dense vegetation can increase albedo. Urban areas with lots of purple patches may be more vulnerable to heat, making them a priority for heat mitigation efforts.

NDVI map calculated from an April 2023, Landsat-8 OLI image of Coronado National Memorial and the surrounding area. The shades of green represent current vegetation, while areas in bright yellow and dark orange represent areas with little to no vegetation. By selecting an image during the dry season, the map highlights the unique ecosystem of sky islands which is characterized by changing vegetation at different elevations.
