Landsat 7 32-Day Raw Composite [deprecated]

  • This Landsat 7 dataset provides 32-day composites of Level L1T orthorectified scenes, using DN values representing scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance.

  • The dataset covers the period from 1999-01-01 to 2017-04-07 and is considered complete, as USGS is no longer producing Pre-Collection Landsat data.

  • Users are recommended to switch to a Collection 1-based Landsat dataset for continued data access and updates.

  • The dataset includes various spectral bands, including Blue, Green, Red, Near Infrared, Shortwave Infrared, Thermal Infrared, and Panchromatic, with pixel sizes ranging from 15 to 60 meters.

  • Landsat datasets are in the public domain and can be used freely, but proper citation and acknowledgment of the USGS as the data source are required.

Description

These Landsat 7 composites are made from Level L1T orthorectified scenes, using the DN values, representing scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance.

As of May 1, 2017, the USGS is no longer producing Pre-Collection Landsat, and therefore this collection is complete. Please switch to a Collection 1-based dataset. See this documentation page for more information.

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.

Bands

Bands

Name Pixel Size Wavelength Description
B1 30 meters 0.45 - 0.52 μm

Blue
B2 30 meters 0.52 - 0.60 μm

Green

Near infrared
B5 30 meters 1.55 - 1.75 μm

Shortwave infrared 1
B6_VCID_1 60 meters 10.40 - 12.50 μm

Low-gain Thermal Infrared 1. This band has expanded dynamic range and lower radiometric resolution (sensitivity), with less saturation at high Digital Number (DN) values. Resampled from 60m to 30m.
B6_VCID_2 60 meters 10.40 - 12.50 μm

High-gain Thermal Infrared 1. This band has higher radiometric resolution (sensitivity), although it has a more restricted dynamic range. Resampled from 60m to 30m.
B7 30 meters 2.08 - 2.35 μm

Shortwave infrared 2
B8 15 meters 0.52 - 0.90 μm

Panchromatic
