# 51 U.S.C. § 60113 - Data policy for Landsat 7
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
(a) Landsat 7 Data Policy.— The Landsat Program Management, in consultation with other appropriate United States Government agencies, shall develop a data policy for Landsat 7 which should—
|
||
|
||
(1) ensure that unenhanced data are available to all users at the cost of fulfilling user requests;
|
||
|
||
(2) ensure timely and dependable delivery of unenhanced data to the full spectrum of civilian, national security, commercial, and foreign users and the National Satellite Land Remote Sensing Data Archive;
|
||
|
||
(3) ensure that the United States retains ownership of all unenhanced data generated by Landsat 7;
|
||
|
||
(4) support the development of the commercial market for remote sensing data;
|
||
|
||
(5) ensure that the provision of commercial value-added services based on remote sensing data remains exclusively the function of the private sector; and
|
||
|
||
(6) to the extent possible, ensure that the data distribution system for Landsat 7 is compatible with the Earth Observing System Data and Information System.
|
||
|
||
(b) Additional Data Policy Considerations.— In addition, the data policy for Landsat 7 may provide for—
|
||
|
||
(1) United States private sector entities to operate ground receiving stations in the United States for Landsat 7 data;
|
||
|
||
(2) other means for direct access by private sector entities to unenhanced data from Landsat 7; and
|
||
|
||
(3) the United States Government to charge a per image fee, license fee, or other such fee to entities operating ground receiving stations or distributing Landsat 7 data.
