LANDSAT 7 ETM+
Spatial Mapping offers over 2500 Landsat 7 scenes covering most
of the North America, South America, Australia and the Mid-East
dating from 1999 to the present. Delivery options include custom
band combinations, projections, file formats and mosaics.
Different band combinations produce completely different images
that highlight the particular features the client is interested
in.
Bands 3,2,1 (Red,
Green, Blue) combine to form a 'true' colour image that simulates
what an observer would see from an airplane.
Bands 5,4,3 (MIR,
NIR, Red) combine to a 'false' colour image that highlight the differences
between vegetated and non-vegetated areas.
IHS Fuse of Bands 5,4,3
(MIR, NIR, Red) can be used to incorporate Band 8 (15 meter Panchromatic)
with the 'false' colour image thereby resulting in a 15 meter resolution
colour image.
