Landsat 8 Gain Change in All Bands, February 2017

Detailed Description

Gain change over time for all Landsat 8 VNIR bands as implemented in February 2017. The Coastal/Aeroslal (CA) band gain was changed for the lifetime, but the other bands were only changed for about a month in September-October 2013 after a spacecraft safehold affected the instrument response. For the CA band, the blue continuous plot shows the trend while the yellow staircase plot shows the actual change implemented into products.
