THE SATELLITE MAP OF THE SILK
ROAD
Tokai University Research & Information Center
and
Research Center for Silk Roadology
A map of the Silk Road by using satellite data was completed
in cooperation with Tokai University Research & Information Center(Director:Toshibumi
Sakata) and Research Center for Silk Roadology(Director:Takayasu Higuchi).
A mosaicked image of meteorological satellite NOAA covering the whole
Silk Road was mainly used for the data base of the map.
The map clearly shows the ecological information such as cities, vegetation,
water, topography, and so on. This map is expected to be a useful data
for the future studies in Silk Roadology.
