COLOR - Many people would like to use the Grand Canyon scene as
background images for their computer systems or in publications. The Grand
Canyon scene is in the public domain and you are free to copy it or use it in
any way you wish.
For your convenience, we have generated a series of COLOR composite
images of Grand Canyon in a variety of formats and resolutions. If you have a
system capable of viewing these increased resolution images, you will see
vivid colors and striking details not seen in browse images.
We have made color composites the 321 band combination (natural color)
and the 741 band combination (mineral exploration bands).
The image resolutions provided are 1280x1024, 1024x768 and 800x600.

WORLD - Eighty browse images from around the world including scenes from
Landsat, SPOT and Russian satellites. These are "preview" images generated
by CORE Software and provided on their IMAGENET interactive image library
system.
LTWG Images
Background
-----------------------------------------------------------------
LTWG is the acronym for Landsat Technical Working Group which
which developed this commonly used specification for formatting and
distributing Landsat TM images. This format was replaced at many Landsat
ground stations by the EOSAT fast format specification.
Because of computer hardware and software limitations when the LTWG
specification was developed in the early 80's, the Quadrant scene format was
usually used. This format split each Landsat scene into four quadrants which
could be individually processed.
Because of recent developments in computer hardware and software, it is
now preferable to process full scenes at one time. This is where
QUADConvert(tm) comes in.
For more information
-----------------------------------------------------------------
For more information on the LTWG specification please contact Customer

EOSAT Fast Format Specification
Background
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Fast Format specification was developed by EOSAT in 1989 to provide
an easy to read image format with a minimum of overhead data. Data in the
fast format is delivered as raw image arrays (no header information
contained in the image files) with an accompanying header file (written in
ASCII).
Fast Format Image Directory
-----------------------------------------------------------------
To allow you to see the final quality of QUADConvert, we have converted
all 7 Landsat bands of Grand Canyon. The Fast Format header file and an ASCII
header have been generated by QUADConvert.
Header File Specification
