On April 30, 2003 the Global Land Information System website (GLIS) will no longer be available. EarthExplorer, which now supports the Macintosh platform, replaces GLIS as the USGS tool for querying and ordering satellite images, aerial photographs, and cartographic products. The following is a list of all collections shown through GLIS and how each will be handled after the April 30th shutdown.
