It\u2019s a joint mission of NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey, and both scientists and the public have free access to the 9 million scenes in this invaluable archive. Landsat images provide the ability to observe changes in Earth\u2019s landscapes and coastal regions over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The images can be strikingly beautiful \u2013 see the <a href=\"https:\/\/eros.usgs.gov\/image-gallery\/earth-as-art\" rel=\"noopener\">Earth as Art<\/a> galleries from our partners at USGS and an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/connect\/ebooks\/earth_art_detail.html\" rel=\"noopener\">eBook<\/a> from NASA as examples \u2013 but they\u2019re much more than that. Behind the images are highly calibrated data that land managers and policy makers use to make decisions about Earth\u2019s resources and our environment. Landsat has long provided often-unique information about agricultural productivity, ice sheet dynamics, urban growth, forest monitoring, natural resource management, water quality and the impacts of climate change on our planet.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"\" class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\"><div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-inline\"><div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\"><figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/img_0352.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/img_0352.jpg?w=2048\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"An embroidery hoop held in front of a white wall by two fingers.
