Department of the Interior is Considering Charging for Landsat Data
APRIL 24, 2018BY CAITLIN DEMPSEY<https://www.gislounge.com/author/caitlin/>GIS LEARNING<https://www.gislounge.com/gis-101/>
Last year, the Farm Service Agency (FSA) starting floating the idea of charging a licensing fee<https://www.gislounge.com/naip-aerial-imagery-might-moved-public-domain-licensing-model/> for its high resolution imagery of the United States starting in 2019. Now, an article in Nature is reporting that the Department of the Interior (DOI), which oversees the USGS, has tasked a federal advisory committee with exploring how instituting a fee for Landsat data might impact scientists and other users.  If implemented, a fee structure for Landsat data would be a departure from the Department of the Interior's current policy<https://remotesensing.usgs.gov/landsat_fees.php> of releasing its Landsat products for free to the public.
