Auckland, New Zealand

This natural-color (photo-like) image of Auckland was acquired on August 27, 2002, by NASA’s Landsat 7 satellite. The most densely developed areas appear white and gray, while suburban areas appear grayish green—a mixture of houses, streets, and lawns. The city spreads out across various peninsulas surrounding Tamaki Strait and other bays and inlets.
