Accessing cloud-based NASA Earth science data is now easier for researchers working in the R programming language thanks to the creation of the NASA-funded earthdatalogin package in R. The earthdatalogin package in R builds on a NASA-funded application programming interface (API) library called earthaccess, which provides easier access to NASA Earth science data using Python.

A new chapter in Landsat’s Earth observation is on the horizon. Landsat Next will continue our mission’s critical land surface data record. Landsat Next will be a constellation of three identical satellites, with improved spectral sampling. This new mission will bring a 6-day revisit cycle of any location with a finer spatial pixel resolution ranging from 10 to 60 meters. Each Landsat Next Instrument will capture the Earth’s surface across 26 spectral bands.

With all these improvements, Landsat Next will transform the ability to monitor and forecast landscape change. To learn more about Landsat Next visit the newly published Landsat Next fact sheet: https://ow.ly/MUEI50QTw0Z
