Products and Datasets

Posters covered a wide range of topics as local graduate students and EROS scientists shared their work in the EROS atrium.

The next generation of USGS land cover mapping is here. Annual NLCD provides land cover data of the U.S. every year back to 1985.

LANDFIRE is a diverse product suite with countless uses that go beyond fire management. The program has now been providing this satellite data for 20 years.

Data from Goddard Earth Observing V5 (GEOS-5 IT) are used in the Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 surface temperature algorithm.

The EROS Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (eVIIRS) Global Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) collection is based on the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) data acquired by the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS), a collaborative program between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The...

The EROS Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (eVIIRS) Global Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) collection is based on the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) data acquired by the Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS), a collaborative program between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The...

Several digital elevation model sources are used in the processing of Landsat Collection 2 Level-1, Level-2, and Level-3 products. These sources, based on specific geographic regions, contribute to improved vertical accuracy in Collection 2 when compared to data processed in the past. Together, these sources are all known as the Landsat Collection 2 Digital Elevation Model (DEM).

Eyes on Earth is a podcast on remote sensing, Earth observation, land change and science, brought to you by the USGS Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center. In this episode, we learn about the usefulness of ECOSTRESS data in examining predictors for wildfire burn patterns.

An annual record of nine historical Remote Sensing Phenology metrics for the conterminous United States is available at a resolution of 375-m for products derived from eVIIRS data (2012-present).An annual record of nine historical Remote Sensing Phenology metrics for the conterminous United States is available at a resolution of 375-m for products derived from eVIIRS data (2012-present).An annual...

The Land Change Monitoring, Assessment and Projection (LCMAP) project has generated an integrated suite of annual land cover and land surface change products for the United States based on time series data from the Landsat record from 1985–2021. LCMAP Collection 1.3 Science Products are based on the USGS implementation of the Continuous Change Detection and Classification (CCDC) algorithm.

Albers Scenes contain 30-meter Collection 2 Level-1 data projected to the Albers Equal Area (AEA) map projection.

Landsat Collection 2 Level-3 Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE) contains six acquisition-based raster data products pertaining to the existence and condition of surface water.
