March 23, 2017 - Landsat 7 ETM+ Surface Reflectance Interruption

By Landsat Missions

On March 12, 2017, the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) onboard the NASA Aura satellite entered survival mode. 

Successful recovery efforts allowed data to resume on March 18, 2017.  Since OMI ozone auxiliary data are required for the processing of Landsat 4-5 TM and Landsat 7 ETM+ Surface Reflectance from ESPA, no L7 ETM+ scenes acquired from March 12  to March 17, 2017 can be successfully processed to Surface Reflectance.  We apologize for this inconvenience.
