What Do the Landsat Download File Names Mean?
This video, from the Integrated Geospatial Education and Technology Training Project (iGETT), gives a detailed explanation of the naming conventions for Landsat files. The presentation covers the elements of the file names and the context needed to understand those elements, including a brief history of Landsat satellites, the Julian calendar, and orbital rows and paths. File name examples from Landsat 1 through 8 are analyzed, and a short quiz at the end of the presentation reviews concepts.
