- I suggest taking a look at the 'glis' index, which is available over the
- internet. (telnet glis.cr.usgs.gov) They have some data indexed for Africa,
- how much and at what resolution, I don't know.
-
- I can send you an info sheet, if you want, or you can just telnet there
- yourself. The use of GLIS is free. The data may cost you something.
