Can anyone tell me what these landforms are? They look like snowcapped mountains, but given the region (near Baghdad) that seems unlikely
This may be the wrong board, sorry

Coordinates?

I'd say it's simply small clouds forming above plantations. You can tell because they have exactly the same shape as the forests underneath
>>
>>7787312
Maybe. There aren't any clouds anywhere else on the map though

Lakes

They do look a lot like salt lakes

Use a proper mapping software
>>
>>7787374
Thanks. What software is that?
>>
>>7787392
Windows Maps
>>
>>7787393
Or maybe Microsoft maps I don't know. Probably can just search Bings maps desu
>>
>>7787288
In cases like this Google Earth has a function to look at older pictures
>>
>>7787288
It is called sunlight reflecting off of lakes. See how the tree lines around the lakes have shadows and the shiny part shimmers in a wave like manner.

I have seen the same thing in airplanes flying over lakes, it only happens at a small angle but it looks wired and it can be blinding bright at times.
>>
>>7787288
Just lakes/ponds as >>7788265 states.

The "software" has nothing to do with this. However, using a different source or time period for the photos can often times show different things.
