<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Times New Roman">My name is Troy Frisbie and I manage the NASA's Scientific Data Purchase program. I was forwarded your message by my staff, who thought I could assist you. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Times New Roman">There are no restrictions on the LandSat mosaics and it is for public use. Since the images are downloadable for the public's use, there is not a lot I can do to control what is done with them. So, you are free to use as you wish. However, I do feel that NASA and EarthSat should be acknowledged in some way. We normally request that if an organization uses our images that they use the following statement: </FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Times New Roman">Provided through NASA's Earth Science Enterprise Scientific Data Purchase Program. Produced, under NASA contract, by Earth Satellite Corporation. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Times New Roman">On an added note, I would like to request that you send a brief statement of any comments or accolades that you may receive from use of our data. We are trying to compile a listing of the uses of our data. Having an entry from you would be a nice addition to our report. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Times New Roman">If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me. </FONT>
