How to spot Kazakhstan from satellite imagery
Much of Kazakhstan is open lowland or steppe, with drier country towards the south and mountains in the east and southeast. The Caspian coast and Lake Balkhash are useful landmarks in a regional view. The country has a large interior, so a close crop may contain little that fixes a location.
Locate Lake Balkhash and compare the open country to its north with the mountain terrain to the southeast.
