There is a typical task to find out what Landsat images are needed for the particular area. To narrow the search options and hurry it up this Landsat path/row map can be used. Original database was cleaned from redundant fields, if you'd like to get original untouched database, contact me. Some description to fields: dayclass = day in the orbit cycle (1-16)
sequence = "chronological" number assigned to each path/row (starting with the 1st p/r acquired on day 1 of the orbit cycle)
mode = D for descending node (day scene) or A for ascending node (night
scene)
path = path (column)
row = row
wr = combined path-row (numeric) usable for link to other catalogs with path\row information

Take into account that outlines of Landsats on this map are not represent exact position and area covered by specific Landsat scene. The next examlpe shows how different usually is the actual coverage and calculated footprint from the shapefile.
