 The study compares the spectral bands of Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus, ETM Plus, and Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager, OLI, for four major land cover types. The results show that while there are slight differences in average surface reflectance between both sensors, OLI has higher values for the near-infrared band for vegetative land cover types and lower values for non-vegetative types. Additionally, OLI has lower values for the shortwave infrared, 2.11 to 2.29 M, band for all land cover types and higher values for the shortwave infrared, 1.57 to 1.65 M, band for non-water land cover types. The study also shows that vegetation indices derived from both sensors have high linear correlation coefficients, demonstrating their complementary use as data. LSWI and NBR performed better than NDVI and MNDWI for cross-comparison analysis of satellite sensors due to spectral band difference effects.
