l.  Skill Review
      Review your map reading skills using a wall map, individual desk maps and an on-line tutorial.
 

 2. Interpreting Real- Time Images - Global Satellite Image

a) Use your map reading skills and your desk map to predict the route the USS New Jersey will take from Bremerton, Washington to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Justify the route you choose in your journal.

 b) Using real time data compare and contrast information from a wall map with current real time data from satellite radar images via discussion and in your journal.

c) Using the Global Satellite Image site and the wall map, answer the following questions:

               1.  What information can you gather from a global satellite image? 
               2.  What information can you gather from a wall map?
               3.  Use the Global Satellite Image, explain what you see.  How was this picture
                    taken?  What is a satellite?
               4.  Describe how the GSI looks.  How does this happen?
               5.  Identify the following land masses. (The map you see is a photo enhanced image
                    done on a computer)
                                a) Atlantic Ocean               b) Pacific Ocean              c) Gulf of Mexico
                                d) Puget Sound                 e) Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
                                f) Bayonne, New Jersey     g) Florida
               6.  Explain what is on the GSI that is NOT on the wall map.  Are there any
                    places that can be identified as developing storms? Where? Why?
               7.  Try to flatten the GSI image - what do we see, what would happen?
                8.  Does the information you viewed from the GSI image change your projected route?

d) Using the World Satellite Image site explain what you can determine about storms. 

e) Using the Animated Global Satellite  (click on animate this view) explain the movement of our weather patterns.

                l.  Give the title/purpose of this map.
                2.  Identify the  information contained on this map.
                3.  How is wind shown on this map?
                4.  Do you think the wind has any affect on waves?  How? Why?
                    5.  Does this new information affect your intial route prediction?
 

4.   Interpreting Real- Time Images- Global Wave Map
      Using the Global Wave Map site answer these questions

                1.  Give the title/purpose of this map
                2.   Identify the information contained on this map.
                3.   How are waves shown on this map?
                   4. Does this information affect your initial route prediction?
