Summary

Abstract: This data set contains satellite imagery from the Landsat MSS instrument. The North American Landscape Characterization (NALC) project includes Landsat multispectral scanner (MSS) data acquired in the years 1973, 1986, and 1991, plus or minus one year, with geographic coverage including the conterminous United States and Mexico. The specific temporal windows vary for geographic regions based on the seasonal characteristics of the vegetation cover. The NALC triplicate scenes are geographically referenced to a 60- by 60-meter Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) ground coordinate grid.
