This data is highly useful for land and coastal mapping studies. In particular, the light reflected from the Earth’s surface (surface reflectance) is important for monitoring environmental resources – such as agricultural production and mining activities – over time. We make accurate comparisons of imagery acquired at different times, seasons and geographic locations. However, inconsistencies can arise due to variations in atmospheric conditions, sun position, sensor view angle, surface slope and surface aspect. These are reduced or removed to ensure the data is consistent and can be compared over time. The Geoscience Australia Landsat 9 OLI TIRS Analysis Ready Data Collection 3 contains three sub-products that provide corrections or attribution information: - DEA Surface Reflectance NBAR* (Landsat 9) - DEA Surface Reflectance NBART** (Landsat 9) - DEA Surface Reflectance OA*** (Landsat 9) Note: DEA produces NBAR as part of the Landsat ARD, this is available in the National Computing Infrastructure environment only and is not available in the DEA cloud environments. The resolution is a 30 m grid based on the USGS Landsat Collection 2 archive, or 15 m for the panchromatic band. This data forms part of the DEA Collection 3 archive. * Nadir corrected Bi-directional reflectance distribution function Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR) ** Nadir corrected Bi-directional reflectance distribution function Adjusted Reflectance with terrain illumination correction (NBART) *** Observation Attributes (OA) {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[112.0, -44.0], [154.0, -44.0], [154.0, -9.0], [112.0, -9.0], [112.0, -44.0]]]} 112.0 154.0 -44.0 -9.0 DEA DEA – Digital Earth Australia Digital Earth Australia EARTH SCIENCES Published_External analysis ready data earth observation landsat observation attributes satellite imagery surface reflectance Link to Data documentDigital Link to Data HTML Link to Digital Earth Australia Maps documentDigital Link to Digital Earth Australia Maps HTML Digital Earth Australia WCS documentDigital Digital Earth Australia WCS WCS Digital Earth Australia WMS documentDigital Digital Earth Australia WMS WMS
