False colour: Band 6 (thermal) on Red
Band 4 (near-infrared) on Green
Band 2 (green) on Blue• Landsat• The era of Landsat satellites started in 1973 with
the launch of the first MSS satellite. Since then, the specifications of the Landsat satellites have improved and data from the ETM+ sensor on Landsat 7 provides 15 m panchromatic data and 30 m multispectral data. A huge archive of data is available, making Landsat an ideal and cost-effective choice in change detection applications.
• A single Landsat scene covers app. 185 x 185 km.
• The revisit time is also good, 16 days between acquisitions.

• QuickBird• Featuring the highest spatial resolution of any
commercial remote sensing satellite, QuickBirdoffers 60 cm resolution (panchromatic or pansharpened) and 2.4 m multispectral collected in a wide swath of 16.5 km which means that large areas can be acquired in one image. Prices start from as low as app. 500 US $ for a 5 x 5 km area.

• Ikonos• Ikonos was launched by SpaceImaging in 1999
and was the first commercial satellite in the world to offer very high resolution satellite data. Ikonosoffers spatial resolutions of 1 m panchromatic or pansharpened and 4 m multispectral. Digital elevation models (DEM) can be produced by tilting the camera in the along-flight direction.

SPOTVarious SPOT sensors are currently in orbit with spatial resolutions from 20 m down to 2.5 metres. The SPOT
archive dates back to 1986 when SPOT-1 was launched and this makes SPOT an ideal solution for time series
analysis. Like QuickBird and Ikonos, the SPOT satellite can be programmed to acquire new images from any
location on Earth.

False colour composite:Red: SWIR band; Green: NIR band; Blue: Red band. In this display scheme, vegetation appears in shades of green. Bare soils and clearcutareas appear purplish or magenta.The patch of bright red area on the left is the location of active fires. A smoke plume originating from the active fire site appears faint bluish in colour.
