To the north of the city we can see Europe's longest river, the Danube flowing from Germany then on its way passed the Slovakian capitol Bratislava, before on to it's source in the Black Sea.</p><p>To the north west of the image we can see the German cities of Nurnberg and Munich, with the Austrian city of Salzburg just to the east of here at the foot of the Alps. To the south of the image Lake Garda is visible on the Italian side of the Alps, as is the Gulf of Venice, with the city itself in the south central part of the image. </p><p> <b>Technical Information:</b><br /> Instruments: MEdium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS)<br /> Date of Acquisition: 19 August 2002 <br /> Orbit number: 02452 <br />Instrument features: Full Resolution image (300 - metre resolution)</p> </div> <ul class="modal__meta_licence"> <li> <b>CREDIT</b><br> ESA </li> <li> <b>LICENCE</b><br> <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/igo/" target="_blank_">CC BY-SA 3.0 IGO</a> or <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Terms_and_conditions_of_use_of_images_and_videos_available_on_the_esa_website" target="_blank_">ESA Standard Licence</a> <br>(content can be used under either licence) </li> </ul> <ul class="modal__meta"> <li> <div><i class="inline-icon far fa-landmark fa-fw" title="Activity"></i></div> <div> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Directorates/Observing_the_Earth/(result_type)/images" target="_top">Observing the Earth</a> </div> </li> <li> <div><i class="inline-icon far fa-rocket fa-fw" title="Mission"></i></div> <div> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Missions/Envisat/(result_type)/images" target="_top">Envisat</a> </div> </li> <li> <div><i class="inline-icon far fa-tags fa-fw" title="Keywords"></i></div> <div> <a href="/ESA_Multimedia/Keywords/Description/Land_use/(result_type)/images" target="_top">Land use</a> </div> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="modal__tab-content--related" class="modal__tab-content modal__tab-content--related"> <a class="modal__related image connecting-benefiting popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2003/05/St._Petersburg_MERIS_19_August_2002"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2003/05/st._petersburg_meris_19_august_2002/9693309-3-eng-GB/St._Petersburg_MERIS_19_August_2002_card_medium.jpg" alt="St. Petersburg – MERIS, 19 August 2002"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Applications</span> <h3 class="heading">St. Petersburg – MERIS, 19 August 2002</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>989 <small>views</small></span> <span>4 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image connecting-benefiting popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2003/03/Finland_-_MERIS_19_August_2002"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2003/03/finland_-_meris_19_august_2002/9686097-3-eng-GB/Finland_-_MERIS_19_August_2002_card_medium.jpg" alt="Finland - MERIS, 19 August 2002"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Applications</span> <h3 class="heading">Finland - MERIS, 19 August 2002</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>2046 <small>views</small></span> <span>7 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image connecting-benefiting popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2003/04/Norway_-_MERIS_24_August_2002"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2003/04/norway_-_meris_24_august_2002/9722827-3-eng-GB/Norway_-_MERIS_24_August_2002_card_medium.jpg" alt="Norway - MERIS, 24 August 2002"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Applications</span> <h3 class="heading">Norway - MERIS, 24 August 2002</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>896 <small>views</small></span> <span>2 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image connecting-benefiting popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2003/04/The_Baltic_Sea_-_MERIS_19_August_2002"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2003/04/the_baltic_sea_-_meris_19_august_2002/9777893-3-eng-GB/The_Baltic_Sea_-_MERIS_19_August_2002_card_medium.jpg" alt="The Baltic Sea - MERIS, 19 August 2002"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Applications</span> <h3 class="heading">The Baltic Sea - MERIS, 19 August 2002</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>1852 <small>views</small></span> <span>12 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> <a class="modal__related image connecting-benefiting popup" href="/ESA_Multimedia/Images/2002/04/France_MERIS_24_March_2002"> <figure class="thumbnail"> <img class="image-bg" src="/var/esa/storage/images/esa_multimedia/images/2002/04/france_meris_24_march_2002/9143315-5-eng-GB/France_MERIS_24_March_2002_card_medium.jpg" alt="France – MERIS – 24 March 2002"> </figure> <header class="entry"> <span class="pillar">Applications</span> <h3 class="heading">France – MERIS – 24 March 2002</h3> <div class="meta"> <span>Image</span> <span>1490 <small>views</small></span> <span>6 <small>likes</small></span> </div> </header> </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script> if (jQuery.cookie('cc_cookie_accept') == "cc_cookie_accept") { var s = document.createElement("script");
