Abstract
This imagery is 15m, six-band multispectral, cloud-minimised mosaics of Landsat 4 satellite scenes over mainland New Zealand.
Purpose
This imagery was mosaiced to support Land Cover Database mapping and the commencement of the Land Use Carbon Analysis System (LUCAS) at the New Zealand Ministry for the Environment. LUCAS maps and quantifies changes in New Zealand land use. This information is used to calculate greenhouse gas emissions and removals for the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) sector toward meeting our international reporting obligations under the Kyoto Protocol and United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

Component ortho-rectified Landsat 4 scenes in UTM projection were sourced from the U.S Geological Survey. Bands: 1 (Blue), 2 (Green), 3 (Red), 4 (NIR), 5 & 6 (SWIR) Note: All bands are oversampled to 15m using cubic-convolution resampling from nominal 30m. Pan-sharpening, ortho-rectification to NZGD1949 New Zealand Map Grid projection, atmospheric correction, BRDF correction, cloud-clearing, date-prioritising and cloud-minimised mosaicking completed by Landcare Research NZ. The NZMG mosaic was subsequently tiled, each tile re-projected to NZGD2000 New Zealand Transverse Mercator and re-mosaicked.
