Landsat Acquisition Tool
Use the tabs below to see when the Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 satellites will acquire data over your area of interest.
The Landsat 8 and Landsat 9 satellites each image the entire Earth every 16 days and are in a 8-day offset. Both satellites acquire data in descending (daytime) and occasional ascending (nighttime) nodes.
Level-1 products become available to download within 6 hours of acquisition. Visit the Landsat Data Access webpage to learn how you can download Landsat data and products.
