Gaps in Landsat 7 Scan line corrector failed on May 31, 2003
Procedures Reproject Landsat 7 image to IDTM83 Produce NDVI Change gaps to unique value Compute mean NDVI of CLU polygons Fill in gaps with mean NDVI
Produce NDVINormalized Difference Vegetation Index ArcInfo tool developed by Eric Rafn Converts Landsat bands 3 and 4 to reflectance Outputs NDVI image
(IR – Red) / (IR + Red) sensitive to vegetation density

Change gaps to unique value
Compute mean NDVI of CLU polygons
ArcInfo Zonal Statistics (ignore nodata, snap to input)Input Output
Fill in gaps with mean NDVI
Concern about Landsat’s future Landsat 5 is 27 years old Landsat 7 is 12 years old Landsat 8 is scheduled for launch in Dec. of 2012 Funding for Landsat 9 is uncertain
Landsat used in Idahosince 1975
Water rights monitoring Adjudication Land use and land cover mapping Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program Mapping Evapotranspiration
