The work of the USGS Land Change Monitoring, Assessment, and Projection (LCMAP) initiative datasets use Landsat information to follow land cover and change story of every pixel in the conterminous United States from 1985 on.

🛰️Every pixel tells a story.

That’s because a Landsat pixel is more than a speck of satellite data. It’s a piece of ground on planet Earth.

Check out our stories showing how #Landsat imagery shows land cover change.

RT @mikewulder: 📢Radeloff et al. (2024) discuss the need to monitor global changes in #climate, #landcover, and #landuse, which threaten natural ecosystems, biodiversity, and vital ecosystem services.
It proposes creating a suite of 13 essential global medium-resolution satellite data products to track and monitor spatiotemporal changes. These products, designed for both management and scientific purposes, will enhance understanding of the biosphere, cryosphere, and hydrosphere. 🌊🧊🌲
➡️The paper emphasizes leveraging the capabilities of #Landsat and #Sentinel2 satellites, building upon the success of NASA's MODIS/VIIRS products. This initiative aims to provide high-level, standardized, and consistent products to fulfill the long-standing vision of the Landsat program​​. 🛰️ #OpenAccess: doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2023.1…
