For monitoring and mapping purpose of earth surface, one of the most valuable satellite datasets archive above 45 year available from
Landsat data (Kennedy et al., 2014; Coppin and Bauer, 1994).
He was the catalyst behind many new innovations for the
Landsat 7mission.
Especificamente, o sensor OLI (Operational Land Imager) do satelite
Landsat 8 e o sensor Theos (Thailand Earth Observation Satellite).
The
Landsat images and weather data are the two major inputs parameters in the vegetation index method.
For example, relatively medium-resolution sensors, such as
Landsat, and relatively low-resolution sensors, such as MODIS, are deployed as long-term Earth observatories.
Hours after the
Landsat 7 photograph was taken, Culbertson was writing his letter aboard the space station, in which, commenting on the still-visible smoke, he said: "It's horrible to see smoke pouring from wounds in your own country from such a fantastic vantage point.
Behind these indices, the tasselled cap transformation (TCT), which is calculated for
Landsat 8 imagery, is used to compact spectral data into a few bands associated with physical scene characteristics with minimal information loss (Baig et al.
N--dimension of the data (09 images,

In this module, the preprocessing of
Landsat and SAR images are performed.
The availability of the high spatial resolution and multitemporal satellite imagery from the archived
Landsat datasets provides a unique opportunity for the monitoring of land degradation and desertification.
