I just reproduced an extract below, but the full earth picture is available at Incredimazing. This picture shows:
- City lights
- Natural gas flares
- Wildfires
- Fishing fleet lights
This picture is based on:
- Nasa’s Visible Earth map, 2001: http://visibleearth.nasa.gov/
- Lights data source: Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, 1994-1995: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/dmsp/maps.html
