<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hi Colin,<br><br></div>I don't know where you are looking for these landsat images but they are free of cost for everyone. Take a look at the Earth Explorer[1] site from USGS. Even Landsat 8 data is available. I just cheched and found about 60 Landsat8 images over UK and Ireland with less then 30% cloud cover.<br>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have have no institutional or academic affiliations and it seems that
this limits my access (free of cost) to Landsat data for the UK. This wasn’t
always the case, I am sure, but I gather everything these days is highly
commercialised and tightly controlled, with little prospect of an unsupported
loaner getting access to basic data (except for Google earth PNG ‘snips’ and
some very useful global DEM Explorer data). </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Has anyone any ideas about open source multispectral UK data?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I should explain that I am an ecologist on a limited budget who is updating
using open source data and freeware programmes like GRASS, and who is very keen
to apply these to large-scale landscapes in support of personal and professional
development. I don’t have a research proposal in mind, but I am scoping
opportunities as I get to grips with the software and the associated analytical
techniques, and may at some point work up a few ideas.</div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888">
