How to Create Color Composites in ArcGIS 10.8 using Landsat 8

In this video, you'll learn exactly how to transform raw Landsat 8 satellite imagery into meaningful Color Composites using ArcGIS 10.8.

Raw satellite data often arrives as individual grayscale bands. To make sense of the data, we need to combine these bands to visualize vegetation, urban areas, or water bodies. We will walk through the "Composite Bands" tool and discuss the most essential band combinations for your GIS projects.

📍 What You’ll Learn:
How to import Landsat 8 (.tif) bands into ArcGIS 10.8.

Using the Composite Bands tool in ArcToolbox.

Understanding Band Combinations:

Natural Color (4, 3, 2): Seeing the Earth as the human eye sees it.

False Color / Infrared (5, 4, 3): Ideal for identifying healthy vegetation.

Short-wave Infrared (7, 6, 4): Great for geological mapping and urban areas.

Tips for adjusting Image Display (Stretch and Gamma) for better visual clarity.
