    • Description

      This image from ALOS shows southern France and the divide of the Rhone River: the 'Grand Rhône' flows down the centre of the image while the 'Petit Rhône' is visible to the west. This divide at the French city of Arles forms the Camargue delta region. In the upper right corner of the image, we can see the Alpilles mountains. The green area south of the mountains is a large nature reserve.

      This image is a compilation of three radar passes on 14 May 2008, 20 May 2010 and 5 July 2010. Each is assigned a colour (red, green or blue) and combined to produce this representation. The colours reveal changes in the surface between the satellite’s passes.
