Integrated Land Change Monitoring

USGS Earth Resources Observation and Science (EROS) Center provide tools that allow user to view, search, query, download, and utilize onlne interfaces for available remote sensing and geospatial data.

Landsat Collection 1 Level- 3 Fractional Snow Covered Area (fSCA) data contains an acquisition-based per-pixel snow cover fraction, an acquisition-based revised cloud mask for quality assessment, and a product metadata file. NOTE: Landsat Collection 1 data and products are no longer available to download from the USGS as of December 30, 2022. Landsat Collection 2 remains available. Please access...

Landsat Collection 1 Level-3 Burned Area (BA) contains two acquisition-based raster data products that represent burn classification and burn probability. NOTE: Landsat Collection 1 data and products are no longer available to download from the USGS as of December 30, 2022. Landsat Collection 2 remains available. Please access the Landsat Collection 2 webpage below for information about Collection...

Landsat Collection 1 Level-3 Dynamic Surface Water Extent (DSWE) contains six acquisition-based raster data products pertaining to the existence and condition of surface water, as well as all intermediate bands used to produce DSWE. NOTE: Landsat Collection 1 data and products are no longer available to download from the USGS as of December 30, 2022. Landsat Collection 2 remains available. Please...

Geospatially tagged ground-based landscape photographs from across the United States. Images initially served as a research tool to aid Landsat-derived land-use/land-cover analyses and assessments (1999-2009).

Weekly VegDRI maps integrate remote sensing, climate, and biophysical data to provide timely drought information for the conterminous United States. (2009-present)

Weekly geospatial model and dataset that is an indicator of short-term dryness across the conterminous United States (CONUS). Quick Drought Response Index (QuickDRI) is designed to have improved sensitivity to early-stage drought conditions and rapidly evolving drought events.

Daily global Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) images and data based on surface reflectance derived from data acquired by the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) on NOAA’s polar orbiting weather satellites (1981-2013).

An annual record of nine historical Remote Sensing Phenology metrics for the conterminous United States is available at a resolution of 250 m for products derived from eMODIS data (2001-present).

The EROS Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (eMODIS) collection is based on the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data acquired by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Earth Observing System (EOS). Note: The eMODIS datasets are no longer being produced after October 1st, 2022. These datasets will remain available for historic reference only...

An annual record of nine historical Remote Sensing Phenology metrics for the conterminous United States is available at a resolution of 1 km for AVHRR phenology products (1989-present).
