DESCRIPTION:Time series and spatial modeling are commonly used to generate 
 cloud- and gap-free satellite imagery. Most existing approaches reconstruc
 t the entire dataset using advanced models\, which requires high computati
 onal resources and time. In this study\, we introduce a new\, computationa
 lly efficient pipeline to reconstruct monthly Landsat data without gaps or
  clouds. The pipeline includes four levels of gap filling. In the first st
 ep\, we apply a clean mask to biweekly Landsat data and create a 7-image w
 eighted window spanning the current and neighbouring months. For each band
  and month across the 28-year period\, we generate 25th and 75th percentil
 e thresholds and calculate a weighted median\, giving 50% weight to the cu
 rrent month and 25% to neighboring months\, using only values within the 2
 5th–75th percentiles. In the second step\, remaining gaps are filled usi
 ng an annual land cover classification derived from the GLAD dataset and L
 andsat data from up to ten previous years\, restricted to pixels in the sa
 me land cover class. The third step fills small gaps of up to 2×2 pixels 
 using a 4×4 averaging kernel. These steps fill approximately 40–60% of 
 land pixels depending on tile location. Finally\, a pretrained temporal mo
 del is applied to fill the remaining gaps. We tested this pipeline on a CP
 U server with 96 threads and 1 TB RAM. Each tile can be processed in under
  2000 seconds. Parallelization across tiles and bands enables global proce
 ssing in under six weeks\, significantly reducing the computational time c
 ompared to full dataset reconstruction\, which would take approximately si
 x months. The resulting dataset provides clean\, gap- and cloud-free month
 ly Landsat imagery suitable for a variety of research applications. Limita
 tions remain\, mostly related to input/output operations\, and future work
  could apply embedding models to reduce dataset size and produce abstract 
 representations for faster access.

DESCRIPTION:One of the most significant deliverables of the OEMC project ar
 e global\, cloud-less Landsat monthly time series from 2000–2025 at 30 m
  resolution. The Landsat global mosaics (V1) are explained in detail in Co
 nsoli et al. (2025\; https://peerj.com/articles/18585/). The Landsat V2 is
  at the order of magnitude more ambitious aiming at monthly products in 16
 bit format and will significantly less artifacts. The  pipeline uses a fou
 r-step process for improved quality\, including gap-filling using spatial 
 and temporal neighbours\, data fusion and final gap filling using global m
 odels. The results of cross-validation show improvements in accuracy in co
 nsistency. Major project challenges include needing 1PB of storage and sec
 uring post-2025 commercial services. Landsat V2 can also be used to derive
  embeddings for 2000-2025.
