Australia's environment has been monitored from space by use of satellites, in order to observe green plant cover and radiant temperature. These two key factors are used in determining the environmental health of a nation. This Web page offers a summary of the satellite program as well as multimedia detail of the observations. Also available is a periodic index to the environmental health of Australia. There are maps, movies, and statistics available. The gopher server only offers the environmental index and a detail of the satellite program.
