Figure showing ASTER band combination comprising R:14/12; G:13/14; B:12/13; imagery acquired Jan. 21, 2010. Image Source: NASA and METI.Sustainable access to safe drinking water is a public health issue directly linked to the economy in Haiti and around the world. This research applies remote-sensing techniques to data from ASTER satellite imagery to produce maps useful for placing community-level water-filtration installation systems in Port au Prince and surrounding areas.
