Landsat update

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1985
On September 26, after a 6‐week delay, then‐deputy administrator Anthony J. Calio of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) signed a contract for commercialization of the government's land remote‐sensing satellite (Landsat) system. The following day the Earth Observing Satellite Company (EOSAT), a joint venture of RCA and the Hughes

Flight feasibility assessment of shuttle/LANDSAT-D missions [PDF]

open access: yes
Because of performance limitations, the shuttle cannot rendezvous with the LANDSAT D satellite in its primary orbit; the actual rendezvous altitude is a function of the performance of the two LANDSAT vehicles and of the shuttle.

Quantifying Changes in the Land Over Time: A Landsat Classroom Activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Students in grades 7-10 analyze land cover change in order to help them grasp the extent, significance, and consequences of land cover change; and to introduce them to the perspective of space-based observations.

Using phenology to improve invasive plant detection in fine‐scale hyperspectral drone‐based images

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Using drone‐based hyperspectral images of mixed temperate successional forests collected over a growing season, detection algorithms were produced for three invasive species of interest, which are not only invasive in Virginia but also much of the U.S.: Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven), Elaeagnus umbellata (autumn olive), and Rhamnus davurica ...

Commercial LANDSAT?

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1982
Private industry should assume responsibility either for the United States' land satellite (LANDSAT) system or for both the land and the weather satellite systems, recommends the Land Remote Sensing Satellite Advisory Committee. The committee (Eos, June 29, 1982, p.

Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.
