Data from the Panchromatic Band of Landsat 7
This is a
high-resolution (15m resolution) image of a small area that underwent drastic
vegetation increases from 1976-1980 (as shown in Figure
23). While this data was
acquired twenty years later, it helps elucidate the land uses in the earlier
images by allowing for far better spatial resolution of ground features and some
sense of the size of individual agricultural plots.
