Sensor Name
TM Sensor Id: 14
Sensor Description The TM sensor is an advanced, multispectral scanning, Earth resources instrument designed to achieve higher image resolution, sharper spectral separation, improved geometric fidelity, and greater radiometric accuracy and resolution than the MSS sensor. The TM data are scanned simultaneously in seven spectral bands. Band 6 scans thermal (heat) infrared radiation.
Spatial Resolution 30x30m for bands 1-5 & 7. 120x120m for band 6
