Question:
What are the off-nadir pointing capabilities for EO-1 DAR collections?

Answer:
The spacecraft is capable of pointing over one adjacent WRS (i.e.) Landsat, path in each direction from the spacecraft flight path. The off-nadir angle will vary depending upon the location of the target from the instrument flight (i.e. nadir) path.
