Randy Wright Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 That's cool! How do you get satt images that can see underground? I'm very interested in this :coffeetime: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobinNV Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 That's cool! How do you get satt images that can see underground? I'm very interested in this :coffeetime: Sounds interesting, I wonder how one can obtain access to these satellite images. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave wiseman Posted March 23, 2008 Author Share Posted March 23, 2008 You might want to contact the USGS.Believe these things are very pricey.Infrared imaging supposedly can reveal any man made thing,such as graves,old hidden trails,tunnels etc. regardless of age.May be way off on my info. :hmmmmmm: ........Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garimpo Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Folks let me say something here about some of this "new" technology....actually it isn't very new at all....I was using satellite imagery and Infared back in the early 90's....also avail abe is high altitude photos at different altitudes and different times of day...like Dave Wiseman says it's possible to see old trails...roads....buildings but no tunnels except where the ground was disturbed.....if the technology exist to see underground I doubt very seriously that it's available to the public.... I used to fly this stuff into a certain Air Force base and just to haul it around I had to have a secret government clearance.... The satellite imagery photos are pricey to say the least....one photo can run more than $100.00...if you want color talk to your banker first... Don't ask me where any of this is now .....I just don't remember but a good search should be reward ing..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldfinger Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi Guys: If anyone has interest in this technology- go to http://landsat.gsfc.nasa.gov/about/ There's other private companies out there so if they don't have the information you need, they should know where to get it.

kuger Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I read that and meant to ask you about them Dave,never heard of em?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave wiseman Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yeah Kuger I had never heard of these chaps until that article even though their just miles away.Perhaps there some of the guys flying over these past few years.Believe that any ground disturbed by man,even outhouse holes can be seen by these photo's and the closer the detail the more expensive.Some of this tech stuff is used in Iraq and Afghanistan....Randy,with some of this you can cross reference with topo,BLM and other stuff for your lost mine searches.I don't believe in that lost mine stuff myself.Like Garimpo,I too inquired about the infrared photo's many eons ago it seems.Could be good stuff for a group of friends/prospecting club.Perhaps little known and short lived placer and lode areas still exist........Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Wright Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Randy,with some of this you can cross reference with topo,BLM and other stuff for your lost mine searches. That's exactly what I was thinking :Huh_anim]: I've got a couple places I'd like to look specifically. Wish me luck! :icon_mrgreen: Steve, Thanks for the link. If I find anymore good info I will post it here :coffeetime: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
