New Landsat Filenames and Metadata Updates to be Released

Source: USGS Landsat Mission

UPDATE

Aug. 22, 2012 • Due to unforeseen circumstances, the release that will align the Landsat 1 through the upcoming Landsat 8 metadata and file naming has been delayed for a short while. An update will be released when a new release date has been established. We deeply apologize for the confusion that this creates. Please feel free to contact us with questions or concerns at custserv@usgs.gov.

 

Aug. 10, 2012 • On August 21, 2012, all newly processed Landsat data will have updated filenames and metadata to better align all 40 years of Landsat data and to prepare for new data from the Landsat Data Continuity Mission that is scheduled to launch on February 11, 2012.
