-
A.
Landsat 8
Landsat 8 is an Earth observation satellite in the long-running Landsat program, providing high-resolution multispectral imagery for environmental monitoring, land use analysis, and climate research.
-
B.
Landsat 9
Landsat 9 is a NASA and USGS Earth observation satellite that continues the decades-long Landsat program by collecting high-resolution multispectral imagery to monitor and study changes on the planet’s surface.
-
C.
Landsat satellites
Landsat satellites are a series of Earth-observing spacecraft that provide long-term, continuous multispectral imagery used worldwide for environmental monitoring, land-use mapping, and resource management.
-
D.
Landsat 5
Landsat 5 was a long-lived Earth observation satellite that provided decades of multispectral imagery for environmental monitoring and land-use analysis.
-
E.
Landsat 7
Landsat 7 is a NASA Earth observation satellite launched in 1999 that provides multispectral imagery for environmental monitoring, land use analysis, and global change research.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
