LAPAN-A4 is a microsatellite developed by LAPAN Pusteksat. LAPAN-A4 has 5 optical payloads i.e. STTL Line Imager 4 Band (SLIM4), Experimental LAPAN Line Imager Space Application (ELLISA), Short Wave Infrared (SWIR), Long Wave Infrared (LWIR-A4), and LWIR BPPT/Hokkaido-A4 which have more advance than previous satellites (LAPAN-TUBSat, LAPAN-A2, LAPAN-A3). This paper aims to explore the potential utilization of imagery from LAPAN-A4 satellites. This paper was made through a literature study of various papers that utilize imagery from Landsat 7, Landsat 8, Sentinel, and ASTER satellites that have band specifications and resolution similar to the LAPAN-A4 camera. The results of this paper conclude that the RGB-NIR band image has the potential to classify landcover, classify land use, disaster monitoring, oil spill monitoring, and urban area monitoring. The potential use of the SWIR band has a greater role in water monitoring, wildfire response, and estimation of soil moisture content. LWIR band plays an important role at ground surface temperatures such as forest fire monitoring, volcano monitoring, geothermal potential, and evapotranspiration.
