I order Landsat product, and note that a quality control report is associated to it. What are the quality control tests performed at the ESA stations?
As part of the Multi Mission Quality Control System (MMQCS), a quality control application, is installed downstream of the processing chain. The application routinely checks around one on ten of the generated products, and thereby controls format consistency, geometric and radiometric quality. For more information on the definition of the tests involved, the User is invited to download the MMQCS users manual. The table below summarizes the test sequence that the quality control application applies to the European Landsat 5 and 7 products. table 1. – QUISS operational test against product format and level.
