Earth: More than a Pretty Picture: How Landsat images Are Made
Overview:
The extensive archive of Landsat data makes up the Earth's family photo album. Landsat satellites have been recording changes on Earth's lands consistently and reliably since 1972. People can do marvelous things with Landsat data, such as quantify urban growth, glacier shrinkage and the extent of volcanic eruptions and floods; estimate crop yield; and document changes in one's own communities. You too can learn to download and analyze Landsat data at no cost. This Museum Alliance session will provide participants with a basic understanding of how Landsat works, and will cover tutorials on how to download Landsat scenes and open them using different wavelengths of light, to serve specific purposes. Try it beforehand and bring your questions!
