This is a 2.44 metre false colour (bands 4, 3, and 2) multispectral image of the Miyake-jima volcano, collected by QuickBird on 14 March 2002. The false colour band combination reveals the sharp contrast between the vegetated and non-vegetated regions on the volcano, caused by recurring lava flows. Situated about 200 kilometres south-southwest of Tokyo, the circular island of Miyake-jima rises about 1100 metres from the sea floor, and spans approximately 8 kilometres in diameter at sea level.
