Landsat Next is on the horizon—the new mission will not only ensure continuity of the longest space-based record of Earth’s land surface, it will fundamentally transform the breadth and depth of actionable information freely available to end users. Take a look at the new capabilities that will define the next Landsat mission.
The Landsat Next Instrument Suite Draft Request for Proposal is available for review via SAM.gov as of Monday, Feb. 13, 2023.
