Collection Description

This dataset contains all the Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM) high-quality ortho-rectified Level 1 (L1T) dataset acquired by ESA over the Fucino, Matera, Kiruna and Maspalomas visibility masks, as well as campaign data over Malindi, Bishkek, Chetumal, and Libreville.

The acquired Landsat TM scene covers approximately 183 x 172.8 km. A standard full scene is nominally centred on the intersection between a path and row (the actual image centre can vary by up to 100 m).

Image characteristics: 

  • full image is composed of 6920 pixels x 5760 lines, 
  • each band requires 40 MB of storage space (uncompressed), 
  • spatial resolution: 
    • 30 m in the VIS, NIR and SWIR, 
    • 120 m in the TIR.
