Landmap: Optical Earth Observation Collection

The optical data collected by Landmap consist of Advanced Near InfraRed Radiometer type 2 (AVNIR-2), Colour InfraRed (CIR), Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC), Landsat 4/5, Landsat 7, Near InfraRed (NIR), SPOT (Earth-Observing Satellites) and Topsat data, along with Mediterranean Landsat imagery and Modern and Historical Aerial Photography. The Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC) funded Landmap service which ran from 2001 to July 2014 collected and hosted a large amount of earth observation data for the majority of the UK, part of which was optical aerial and satellite imagery. After removal of JISC funding in 2013, the Landmap service is no longer operational, with the data now held at the NEODC.
