Landsat 7 is a satellite of the USGS Landsat 7 Project. The satellite is equipped with an Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) instrument that is an eight-band multispectral scanning radiometer capable of providing moderate resolution image data of the Earth's surface.

Various spectral band data are combined to produce an image. By using different bands you can get images that represent human eye perception or pseudo colorations that represent other spectrum normally not visible to the human eye, i.e., thermal, infrared, etc..

Landsat 7 data is available globally at a scale where you can pick out many prominent features. The maximum resolution is 15 meters per pixel on the panchromatic band (0.52 - 0.90µm) of the electromagnetic spectrum.
