The results of a high-resolution scan of the Ganges River Basin from the (Space) Shuttle Imaging Radar is shown. Derived elevation is realized through several encoding methods. On the top is a pseudo-colored surface using the continuous colormap on the right. On the bottom is a pseudo-colored filled contour map using the segment colormap on the left. In the middle is a pseudo-color boundary map of the region using the pseudo-color map on the right.
