	Tobin Digital Orthography product: • Represented and displayed in a digital format by subdividing the image into small    equal-sized and    shaped pixels, representing the brightness of each area with a    numeric value or digital number. • Identification of land cover establishes the baseline from which monitoring activities    (change detection) can be performed, and provides the ground cover information for    baseline thematic maps. Land cover refers to the surface cover on the ground,    whether vegetation, urban infrastructure, water, or bare soil. Identifying,    delineating and mapping land cover is important for global monitoring studies,    resource management, and planning activities. • Land use applications involve both baseline mapping and subsequent monitoring, since    timely information is required to know what current quantity of land is in what type of use    and to identify the land use changes from year to year. • Tobin is the first company to have a total Landsat coverage of the continental U.S. with a    1993 and a 2000 mosaic image. Uses: 1. Change detection 2. Provides ground cover information for baseline thematic maps
