Data product titles and IDs
From Landsat Collection 3 onwards, DEA data product titles and IDs have followed a specific naming convention.
Titles
DEA products are grouped into catalog / product suites that may comprise of multiple products:
1) Catalog / Product suite
DEA products have two product names:
1) Main title (plain English alias)
2) Full technical name
The titles follow the naming convention below:
Title | Convention | Examples |
Product Suite | DEA {product} |
|
Plain English alias | DEA {product} {collection number} ({platform} {platform sensors}) |
|
Full technical name | {organisation} {platform} {platform sensors} {product} {collection number} |
|
IDs
The IDs follow the naming convention below:
Convention | Examples |
{organisation}_{platform}{platform sensors}_{product}_{collection number} |
|

Data product files
The files contained within the DEA data products also follow a specific naming convention on Open Data Cube:
For ARD:
{product}-{minor version}-{patch version}_{spatial reference}_{acquisition date}_{maturity}_{measurement}.{extension}
For Derivatives:
{product}_{spatial reference}_{acquisition date}_{maturity}_{measurement}.{extension}
The fields are defined as follows:
For ARD:
{product} Open Data Cube product ID (as above; e.g. ga_ls5t_nbar_3)
{minor version} A single integer
{patch version} A single integer
{spatial reference} The combination of 'path' and 'row' locations. Both 'path' and 'low' are zero-padded strings of length 3, which make a 6-integer number when combined (e.g. 092 and 084 make 092084)
{acquisition date} Has the form yyyy-mm-dd
{maturity} Represents dataset maturity and can be one of the following:
nrt
- If the acquisition file is processed within 48 hours of the acquisition date
interim
- If the acquisition date is pre-2002-07-01 AND fallback water vapour data is used (i.e. water vapour is not sourced from the same day as the acquisition date)
OR - If the acquisition date is post-2002-07-01 AND fallback water vapour data is used
OR - If the acquisition date is post-2002-07-01, fallback water vapour data is not used (i.e. water vapour is sourced from the same day as the acquisition date) AND fallback BRDF data is used
final
- If the acquisition date is pre-2002-07-01 AND fallback water vapour data is not used
OR - If the acquisition date is post-2002-07-01, fallback water vapour is not used AND fallback BRDF data is not used
See flow process diagram below.
{measurement} e.g. band01, band02, band03, thumbnail, fmask, satellite-view
{extension} e.g. tif, jpg
Flow process for determining maturity (nrt, interim or final)
