General Information Area of Interest Transportation Local Roads Hydrology River Physiography Contour lines and elevation (m) The present map shows basic topographic features such as transportation, hydrology and physiography in the area of the Askja volcano. These basic topographic features are derived from visual interpretation of pre-event image Landsat 8 (mosaic of images acquired on 21/08/2014 and 28/08/2014). All satellite images have been radiometrically enhanced. The estimated geometric accuracy of this product is 30 m CE90 or better, from native positional accuracy of the background satellite image. The estimated thematic accuracy of this product is 85 % or better, as it is based on visual interpretation of recognizable items on high resolution optical imagery. Shadowed areas are zones of lower interpretation accuracy due to the poorer image radiometry. Only the area enclosed by the Area of Interest has been analyzed.
