NASA GLOBE Observer is a free smart phone app that lets you take citizen science data for NASA. Just this month the GLOBE Observer team launched the latest tool within the app called: "Land Cover Adopt a Pixel." This new feature lets you take part in a project to create more detailed satellite-based global maps of land cover by sharing photos of the world around you. Why does NASA need your help in collecting this data with the new GLOBE Observer Land Cover tool? One reason is to fill in details of the landscape that are too small for global land-mapping satellites to see. Land cover is critical to many different processes on Earth and contributes to a community's vulnerability to disasters like fire, floods or landslides.
