At this year’s AGU Fall Meeting, a session on emerging applications of Landsat data will be convened by the NASA and USGS Landsat 8, 9, and Next project scientists together with the USGS Earth Observation Applications Coordinator.
Abstract submissions are now being accepted now through July 31, 2024.
Session Details
This session will focus on emerging science applications of medium resolution optical data from Landsat that benefit society. A diverse set of multi-modal science applications has been enabled with Landsat and Sentinel-2 harmonization and fusion with SAR and LiDAR among others.
Continental to global scale Landsat data processing has progressed with access to high-end cloud computing resources. Analysis of Landsat data continues to reveal impacts from humans and climate change across the globe in land-cover, land-use, agriculture, forestry, aquatic and cryosphere systems.
Building on the 52+ year legacy, Landsat Next’s enhanced temporal (6-day revisit), spatial (10 – 60 m), and spectral resolution (26 VSWIR and TIR bands) will provide new avenues for scientific discovery.
Abstract Deadline
Abstract submissions are due by Wednesday, July 31, 2024.
Who Should Submit
Anyone making innovative use of Landsat data—alone or in combination with other Earth observation data modalities—to meet societal needs today and during coming decades.
Conveners
Christopher S. R. Neigh (NASA Landsat 8/9 Project Scientist; primary convener)
Bruce Cook (NASA Landsat Next Project Scientist)
Christopher J. Crawford (USGS Landsat Project Scientist)
Zhuoting Wu (USGS Earth Observation Applications Coordinator)
