Mission Name: Landsat 7The Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) on Landsat 7 was a copy of the ETM on Landsat 6 with some improvements. The ETM+ provided multispectral imagery of Earth land resources. The ETM+ consisted of four visible and near infrared (VNIR) channels, two short wave infrared (SWIR) channels, and one thermal infrared (TIR) channel (10-12 micrometer). Additionally, a panchromatic channel was included to provide 15 meter resolution. The VNIR and SWIR channels provide 30 meter resolution while the TIR channel provided 60 meter resolution. ETM+ carried two new solar reference calibrations in which long-term trends were monitored by a full-aperature solar precision diffuser. The ETM+ measured a swath 185 km wide every 16 days.
