Operational Aspects of Landsat 8 and 9 Geometry
Landsat 9 (L9) was launched on 27 September 2021. This spacecraft contained two instruments, the Operational Land Imager-2 (OLI-2) and Thermal Infrared Sensor-2 (TIRS-2), that allow for a continuation of the Landsat program and the mission to acquire ...

Landsat 9 pre-launch sensor characterization and comparison with Landsat 8 results [PDF]
Landsat 9 is planned for launch in December 2020 to continue the mission of observing changes on the Earth’s surface that began in 1972 with the launch of Landsat 1. Like Landsat 8, Landsat 9 will carry two imaging instruments: Operational Land Imager 2 (OLI-2), designed and built by Ball Aerospace**, and Thermal Infrared Sensor 2 (TIRS-2 ...

Background Leaf area index (LAI) is a key indicator for the assessment of the canopy’s processes such as net primary production and evapotranspiration. For this reason, the LAI is often used as a key input parameter in ecosystem services’ modeling, which

A Study of the Land Cover of Razzaza Lake during the Past 25 Years Using Remote Sensing Methods
In this study, the Earth's surface was studied in Razzaza Lake for 25 years, using remote sensing methods. Images of the satellites Landsat 5 (TM) and 8 (OLI) were used to study and determine the components of the land cover. The study covered the years
