Landsat data types, usage and access in conjunction with OpenStreetMap data
summary
Landsat 7, 8 and 9 provide 30 m pixels across ~180 by 185 km scenes with an effective 8‑day revisit when 8 and 9 operate together, and include thermal band 10 for surface temperature mapping. A Richmond June 17 scene shows 93°F air but surface pixels up to ~165°F; extracting those hotspots takes about ten minutes from raw band to mapped points. Data access options include LandsatLook, EarthExplorer, ARD tiles and the Machine-to-Machine API, with full Landsat Collection 2 on AWS for pixel‑level pulls.
