TY - Data T1 - China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (Kashgar to Islamabad Section) Landsat OLI/TIRS Remote Sensing Image Dataset (June 2013-2022) A1 - Zhang yaonan DO - 10.12072/ncdc.NIEER.db2350.2022 PY - 2022 DA - 2022-07-17 PB - National Cryosphere Desert Data Center AB - Landsat 8 is the eighth satellite in the U.S. Landsat Program, successfully launched aboard an Atlas-V rocket from Vandenberg Air Force Base, California on February 11, 2013. Originally designated as the Landsat Data Continuity Mission (LDCM), the satellite carries two primary instruments: the Operational Land Imager (OLI) and the Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS). Landsat 9 is the ninth satellite in the U.S. Landsat Program. On September 27, 2021, Landsat 9 was successfully launched from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. The satellite will conduct Earth imaging every 16 days, operating with an 8-day temporal offset from Landsat 8 to enhance observational coverage. The Operational Land Imager (OLI) onboard the satellite acquires data in 9 spectral bands with a spatial resolution of 30 meters, including one 15-meter panchromatic band, and provides a swath width of 185×185 km. The Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) collects data in 2 separate thermal infrared bands at 100-meter resolution.This dataset comprises Collection 2 Level-1 (C2-L1) data products from Landsat OLI covering the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor section between Kashgar and Islamabad. All data were obtained from the official United States Geological Survey (USGS) website. This dataset features a spatial resolution of 30 meters with cloud coverage limited to less than 20% per scene.
