%X The dataset covers the western region of China. In 1960s and 1970s, MSS remote sensing imageDataset properties:Pixel Size:60m Reflective bands 4-7 (Landsat 1-3) and Bands 1-4 (Landsat 4-5)Output Format:GeoTIFFResampling method:cubic convolution (CC)Map Projection:UTM – WGS 84Polar Stereographic for the continent of Antarctica.Image Orientation:Map (North Up)The data source is partially downloaded from http://eros.usgs.gov/, and partially collected from various projects. The data folder is named as the row and column number of the image. The folder includes Mss4 band images (. TIF), header files (. Met, *. HDR) and thumbnails (jpg). The naming format of image file is row and column number ﹣ TM image sign (2m), image acquisition time ﹣ band number. It is mainly used in the thematic analysis of agriculture, forestry, water, soil, geology, geography, mapping, regional planning, environmental monitoring and the preparation of thematic maps of different scales.
