This grant, offered by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), is for research aimed at comprehensively quantifying the total societal and economic benefits derived from Landsat imagery. The goal is to produce findings generalizable across the entire United States population of Landsat users, providing a robust understanding of its value. This initiative seeks to rigorously investigate how Landsat imagery actively contributes to various decision-making processes. The methodology will involve two key components: conducting an additional, targeted survey of existing Landsat users to gather diverse insights, and developing detailed case studies that specifically explore the application and impact of Landsat imagery within the context of western water resource issues. This work is crucial for highlighting the broad utility of Landsat data.
