compMetaLandsat: Get calibration information from Landsat 8 standard level 1B/T filename

Description

The function scans a Lansat metadata file for various calibration and orbit coefficients as well as some sensor specific data.

Usage

compMetaLandsat(files)

Value

data.frame containing the following information for each band/layer:

  • DATE date (e.g. 2013-07-07)

  • SID sensor id (e.g. LC8)

  • SENSOR sensor name (e.g. Landsat 8)

  • SGRP sensor group (e.g. Landsat)

  • BID band id (e.g. 7)

  • BCDE band code (5 digit standard name, e.g B001n)

  • SRES spatial resolution of the sensor band (e.g. 30 for 30 m x 30m)

  • TYPE type of the sensor band regarding wavelength (e.g. VIS)

  • SPECTRUM spectral range regarding radiation source (e.g. solar)

  • CALIB type of applied calibration (e.g. SC for scaled counts)

  • RID region id (e.g. R00001) for multi region Satellite objects

  • RADA addtition coefficient for radiance conversion

  • RADM multiplication coefficient for radiance conversion

  • REFA addtition coefficient for reflectance conversion

  • REFM multiplication coefficient for reflectance conversion

  • BTK1 brightness temperature correction parameter

  • BTK2 brightness temperature correction parameter

  • SZEN sun zenith angle

  • SAZM sun azimuth angle

  • SELV sun elevation angle

  • ESD earth-sun distance (AU)

  • LMIN Minimum wavelength of the band (micrometer)

  • LMAX Maximum wavelength of the band (micrometer)

  • RADMIN Minimum radiance recorded by the band

  • RADMAX Maximum radiance recorded by the band

  • REFMIN Minimum reflectance recorded by the band

  • REFMAX Maximum reflectance recorded by the band

  • LNBR Layer number from 1 to n layers

  • LAYER Layer name

  • FILE Filepath of the data file

  • METAFILE Filepath of the metadata file

Arguments

files

Path and filename of the Landsat metadata file.

Examples

Run this code
path <- system.file("extdata", package = "satellite")
files <- list.files(path, pattern = glob2rx("LC08*.TIF"), full.names = TRUE)
