Summary

Description
العربية: القارَّة القُطبيَّة الجنوبيَّة (أنتاركتيكا). صورة ساتليَّة تابعة لِوكالة ناسا، من ضمن بيانات الگُلَّة الزرقاء المُرسلة عبر الأقمار الاصطناعيَّة (من على بُعد كيلومترٍ واحد من العدسة الساتليَّة المُستخدمة). "تمَّ مزج بينات "MODIS" المُخصصة لِدراسة حالة الجليد القطبي مع تلك الخاصَّة بالإدارة القوميَّة لِدراسة المُحيطات والمُناخ—التي تمَّ الحصول عليها عبر الراديومتر الأكثر تطوُّرًا." تمَّ توليد الصورة باستخدام برنامج C مُخصص للتعامل مع صور وبيانات الگُلَّة الزرقاء، كما تمَّ الحصول على مُعادلات الإسقاط الشاقولي من موقع عالم الرِّياضيَّات.
مُلاحظة: تمَّ تعديل هذه الصورة يدويًّا في سبيل ملء بعض المناطق ذات العُنصورات (الپكسلات) السوداء، في الرُبعيَّة العُليا اليُمنى. يُعتقد بأنَّ تلك العُنصورات السوداء ظهرت نتيجة فُقدان بعض البيانات الخاصَّة بغطاء الأرض \ البحر المُستعملة في صناعة صورة الگُلَّة الزرقاء الأصليَّة.
English: Antarctica. An orthographic projection of NASA's Blue Marble data set (1 km resolution global satellite composite). "MODIS observations of polar sea ice were combined with observations of Antarctica made by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s AVHRR sensor—the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer." Image was generated using a custom C program for handling the Blue Marble files, with orthographic projection formulas from MathWorld.
Note: this image has been manually modified to fill in an area of black pixels in the ocean, in the upper right quadrant. The black pixels are presumed to be due to missing data in the land/sea mask used in making the original Blue Marble image.
Español: El continente antártico. La imagen es una proyección ortogonal creada a partir del conjunto de datos satelitales Blue Marble de la NASA con una resolución de un kilómetro.
Français : Le continent Antarctique. L’image est construite en projection orthographique à partir des données satellites « Blue Marble » de la NASA, ayant une résolution d’un kilomètre. Les images de la banquise, prises par MODIS, ont été combinées avec celles du radiomètre avancé à très haute résolution de la National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration pour former celle-ci. Elle a été générée en utilisant le logiciel MathWorld.
Note : cette image a été modifiée manuellement pour remplir une zone de pixels noir dans l’océan, dans le coin en haut à droite. Ces pixels manquants sont supposés être dus à des données manquantes dans le masque terre-mer utilisé pour construire l'image original de Blue Marble.
