How to spot Kenya from satellite imagery
Kenya includes central highlands, Rift Valley lakes, dry northern and eastern lowlands, and an Indian Ocean coast. Mount Kenya rises east of the Rift. These contrasts mean that a lush highland image and a dry northern image can both belong to Kenya.
Compare the highlands around Mount Kenya with the terrain around Lake Turkana. Describe the visible contrast without assuming one image represents the whole country.
