I will discuss two aspects of land surface analysis in terms of inherent contradiction in their definition. The first
pertains to how one analyzes consistent temporal changes in land use using satellite imagery at the pixel level. The second
pertains to the definition of impervious surface area, alternately from a surface and a satellite perspective.
