AI-generated Key Takeaways
-
The Landsat 5 TM Collection 1 Tier 1 Annual Raw Composite dataset provides annual composites of Landsat 5 TM imagery from 1984 to 2012.
-
The composites are created using all scenes within each year, with the most recent pixel used as the composite value, representing scaled, calibrated at-sensor radiance.
-
Bands include Blue, Green, Red, Near Infrared, Shortwave Infrared 1 & 2, Thermal Infrared 1, and a QA Bitmask.
-
The dataset is provided by USGS/Google and is freely available for research, education, and non-profit use.
-

Description
These Landsat 5 TM 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 annual period beginning from the first day of the year and continuing to the last day of the year. All the images from each year are included in the composite, with the most recent pixel as the composite value.
