[Landsat-pds] Upcoming updates to Landsat on AWS data

[Sundwall, Jed]

Quick update:

We have been granted additional bandwidth to acquire Landsat data from EROS and will use it to reacquire 53,206 scenes that have been reprocessed with updated TIRS data as described at http://landsat.usgs.gov/calibration_notices.php

We will also use this opportunity to check for any scenes that we may have failed to acquire throughout 2015. Another user of the data recently pointed out that "USGS states that there are 149307 scenes so far in 2015, but AWS claims to host only 145746 of them. As a percentage, that is 97.6% - IOW 2.4% are missing.” These scenes may be missing from the bucket or they may merely be missing from the scene_list.gz file.

I’ll update the list once the reacquisition is complete.

Thanks,

Jed Sundwall – Open Data – Amazon Web Services
