Landsat 1-5 MSS Level-1
Coming later The Multispectral Scanner (MSS) archive from Landsat 1 to 5, the oldest Landsat data, at 60 m. USGS makes no surface reflectance product for MSS, so Level-1 is the only form.
Schema v1 defines this collection, but lean v1 does not serve it yet. Requests for it answer 404 unknown-collection. GET /v1/collections will list it once it is live.
