A collection of image anomalies of unexplored and unknown areas that may contain undiscovered archeaological sites. I've been searching for over 7 years via NASA and USGS.
This has become a work in progress and I hope some of you will contribute to the research.
The first collection/placemark Tour includes 13 anomalous areas in Florida and the Bahamas.

Would like to see some high res imagery of this area. NASA imagery reveals a large gridded anomaly. There are supposedly features here similar to the Bimini Road area. You can see them here: SD- Gridded Anomaly Cay Sal Bank

Not sure what this could be but it does appear a bit odd. There seems to be a ring around one side of this area after enhancing the image.

More strange patterns that appear on the nearby land. Image enhancement reveals this area could contain artificial anomalies.

The darker areas in this field may be a ruin foundation. Any comments?

This area is one big underwater cave formation that Jacques Costeau made famous. There are many scientific theoriesfor the formation of this cave system. From space the area seems almost ordered in appearance. This is one of the least explored cave systems on planet Earth. The Blue Hole is one example of an almost perfect circle. More Belize Images

This one may be unexcavated. Looks to be in line with some of the other circles.

3 mountains on Topo map- confirmed on NOAA topo data. Sent to me by Keith.
The mountains are equal distance apart and may be a part of this anomalous Network of Underwater lines that has been found on NOAA topographic data. There was an article in 'Atlantis Rising' magazine back in the July/August issue #34 in 2002. You can get back issues here: http://www.atlantisrising.com/
Read more info about the lines here: http://www.satellitediscoveries.com/discoveries/line_network/main.html
A smaller series of lines has been spotted on NASA Landsat imagery in the Bahamas. See the info here: http://www.satellitediscoveries.com/discoveries/land_sea_coast_structures/bahamas/baha_3.html

This area has been confirmed on the NOAA Topographic map and it seems to be a part of the larger NOAA Underwater line Network spotted back in 2002. Read more here: http://www.satellitediscoveries.com/discoveries/line_network/main.html

Similar lines have been seen on a smaller scale in the Bahamas. http://www.satellitediscoveries.com/discoveries/land_sea_coast_structures/bahamas/baha_3.html

Truly worthy of more investigation from Bermuda triangle researchers. Strange lines on the ocean floor that intersect at this placemark. It is uncertain what the lines could be. The lines were originally found on the NOAA topographic image map: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/image/2minrelief.html

A collection of 13 placemarks that includes: linear areas South of Chaco Canyon that appear to be dams, square cistern/well features that are aligned in straight lines, a very large circle similar to those of Pueblo Bonito and more white dots similar to those in Wyoming.
Any comments on the features?

This image collection includes 17 placemarks of interesting circular areas in the Modoc National Forest in Northern California. The circular areas all appear to be around 60 feet in diameter. Petroglyph circles have been found on many rocks in the surrounding areas that appear to be similar to the circles seen from the air in the Modoc National Forest.

Linear features are similar to the linear anomalies found on NASA images just a bit North of the line presented here.

i loved your posts! i cannot help you -as you have made great job-, but maybe you can help me. i have been searching for sea-bed-surface imagery for a long time, with no results so far... i am interested in sonar imagery the best, but any issues would meet my wishes! thx in advance: syzygy

As for other circular features in this set of placemarks, they are entirely consistent with mima mounds, a common natural feature of prairies in the western US.
Methinks the original poster is too credulous by half...

So.. duck mounds, juniper trees, etc... Most of you feel these circles are completely natural?
There have been sightings of similar circles just north of Mt. Shasta at a rest stop that appear to be of an artificial origin. Please see: Mound Formations near Mt. Shasta The circular features appear almost identical in size to the circles in the Modoc National forest. There are reports of a sign at a rest stop nearby that concludes the circles are of ancient man made origins.
The rock art in the Modoc forest appears to show circular patterns that suggest these circles could be more than natural features, plus they are not far from the Mt. Shasta circles of unknown origin.

You never really truly know unless you go.

Try contacting USGS. They have several 800 numbers and the operators are very friendly and try to call you back if you have a question they can't answer. I have not seen sonar maps free to the public on the web yet. I primarily work with the free info on the web that has been declassified.
From what I have researched this NOAA map is the best topography data out there now. Someone please correct me and send me a good link if I'm wrong..

Not sure were those are although I live near there. In addition to Junper Trees and duck islands, There are some natural features that give that appearance in this part of the state. The high clay soils a prone to freezing and thawing and over time they develope a mound appearance with surface rock accumulating around the mound perimiter. There is a discussion of this in Ca bureau of mines publication on the geology of the Macdoel quadrangle 1949. Look approximately 4 miles SE of the intersection of the Tennant Rd. and Highway 97.

These Land Anomalies, are probably seismic test holes for oil & gas development within the region. The reason they are aligned on perfect north and west alignments (and occassionally northwest southeast) is due to geophysics being more easily read by technicians who analyze what is underneath the earth to see where pockets of oil and natural gas are located in the Wyoming Thrustbelt. If you notice in surrounding areas of Wyoming, oil and gas roads dot the landscape.

First of all, the satellite photo is so dark it's a strain to look at, but beyond that everything there is perfectly explainable without referring to anything exotic. The small dark dots that cover most of the area are vegetation, probably Great Basin Sage (Artemesia tridentata) in this area. The light evenly spaced dots are in all probability Prairie Dog burrows - see this post.. The larger oval feature looks like a dried up seasonal pond. The evenly spaced dash-shaped are likely from seismic surveys searching for natural gas. The longer trenches are also some sort of survey activity probably. And the "underlying pattern" is slightly rolling terrain. Nothing too mysterious.

A collection of 4 anomalous, linear areas off the coast of Cuba. The linear features are underwater and seem to be close to areas that may have sub-surface anomalies.
The anomalies also show up on NASA World Wind images. Cuba Underwater Linear Anomalies

Unfortunately many of the Land & Sea Anomalies collection have been obliterated with the switching to a new service provider TruEarth. Many of the markers in this collection and around the Cuba area are over low-resolution imagery now since the switch to the new service provider and I really hate that. My hope is they will get better resolution of the Bahamas in the future.
If you would like to see some of the Bahamas anomalies they have been documented at the SD website at this link.
We do appreciate the fact that Google Earth exists but it is a bit distressing when images disappear when we want more to be added, not taken away.

Thanks for your response.
The area in Wyoming goes for many miles, that's one reason why I did not suspect this was any type of scientific testing residue.
Hmmm...

These are manmade, but they were created in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s for waterfowl. they are mounded earth, brush, and trees that serve as islands for geese to lay eggs and raise their young relatively free from coyotes and other predators. As the previous poster said, they were a joint project between Ducks Unlimited and the federal government that has been a resounding success. In fact, most of the water features on the Devil's Garden have been built for waterfowl habitat. It's one of the most productive areas for breeding on the continent.
The mounds at the Grass Lake rest area on us-97 are the same things.

PS. The dots are layed out in a linear fashion from East to West. Some dots are bigger than others but are always aligned.
That's another reason why I ruled out ant hills. Does anyone know of anytype of geo testing in the area or surveying of any kind?
