Page Summary
-
This dataset contains Landsat 7 Collection 1 Tier 1 composites made from orthorectified scenes using scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance values.
-
Composites are created from all scenes within each 32-day period, with the most recent pixel used as the composite value.
-
The dataset includes multiple bands covering various wavelengths, including thermal infrared bands with different gain settings and a quality assessment band.
-
Landsat datasets are public domain and can be used without copyright restriction, with acknowledgement of the USGS as the data source encouraged.

Description
These Landsat 7 Collection 1 Tier 1 composites are made from Tier 1 orthorectified scenes, using the DN values, representing scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance.
These composites are created from all the scenes in each 32-day period beginning from the first day of the year and continuing to the 352nd day of the year. The last composite of the year, beginning on day 353, will overlap the first composite of the following year by 20 days. All the images from each 32-day period are included in the composite, with the most recent pixel as the composite value.
