Detailed Description
This map displays the density of over 48,000 scenes that have been acquired by the Landsat 7 extended science mission from May 5 to August 23, 2022. (A continuously updated map is available.)
Landsat 7 imaging resumed on May 5, 2022, at a lower orbit of 697 kilometers (km) after a series of maneuvers in early April lowered the satellite out of its standard 705-kilometer WRS-2 orbit. The current USGS Landsat 7 extended operations plan is to continue acquiring science data through the end of September 2022, when the mean local crossing time will be around 8:35 AM.
