    Below is an index map of the GLORIA imagery available for the U.S. EEZ Kingman Reef and Palmyra Atoll area. The raw GLORIA data were processed and digitally mosaicked to produce 7 mosaic areas. Two mosaics are of a 2-degree by 2-degree area; 2 mosaics are of 2-degree and 15 minute by 2-degree area; 1 mosaic of 1-degree by 2-degree and 45' area; 1 mosaic of 1.5-degree by 2-degree area; and 1 mosaic of 1-degree 45' by 2-degree 45' area. The index map contains links to a desampled, 250-m pixel version of the mosaic. To obtain a more detailed view of an individual mosaic, move the cursor over the mosaic area and click to select. A reduced version of the mosaic will be displayed in a separate browser window.

    To download the 50 m mosaic with associated GIS information, please go to the data table. A single, 250-m pixel resolution composite GLORIA image of the seven individual mosaics is also available from the data table.
