The virtual shop of the popular resource kosmosnimki.ru has significantly simplified access to updated and high resolution IRS-1C/1D imagery (5.8 m) and IKONOS (0.8 m) covering the Russian and CIS territory. On-line purchasing of mosaics of interest or their fragments is done in JPEG format for lower prices as compared to data in professional GeoTiff format.
Currently, IRS mosaics of the territories of Central, Southern and Privolzhsky Federal Districts are available in the Internet-shop of kosmosnimki.ru geoportal. Besides, the users can purchase IKONOS satellite mosaics covering the largest Russian and Ukrainian cities. Please be reminded that 55 towns have already been imaged by IKONOS satellite: Kazan, Kaliningrad, Kemerovo, Magnitogorsk, Makhachkala, Moscow, Nalchik, Novokuznetsk, Novorossiysk, Samara, St-Petersburg, Simferopol, Tolyatti, Ufa, Kharkov, etc.
