I am trying to create a mosaic dataset that I can later add multidimensional information to for forest monitoring. However, I am facing challenges creating the mosaic datasets because the Landsat images I am using have different sensor types, including Landsat TM, ETM+, OLI, and OLI_TIRS. I have tried creating a mosaic dataset for individual Landsat sensors using surface reflectance as the processing template while ensuring that "calculate statistics," "update overviews," and "estimate mosaic dataset statistics" are all checked. Despite this, I keep getting the error: "Error: 8004818c: No new mosaic dataset item was added."
Interestingly, when I repeated the above steps leaving the Raster Type as "Raster Dataset" (without selecting any specific sensor type), it worked. I am using ArcGIS Pro version 3.2.2 for this analysis.
My question is, how can I create a single mosaic dataset that includes multiple Landsat sensor types while focusing only on surface reflectance as the processing template?
I would greatly appreciate any assistance or insights regarding this issue. Thank you in advance for your help!

It sounds like you have not found our best practice advice for imagery at https://esriurl.com/ImageryWorkflows. You definitely should not use the Raster Dataset raster type - that will fail to include important metadata to properly configure the mosaic dataset for Landsat imagery.
See the notes here https://doc.arcgis.com/en/imagery/workflows/resources/managing-medium-resolution-satellite-data.htm and specifically the recommended sample Python scripts for managing Landsat 8 scenes .

I am having the same problem, I have followed the configuration in the documentation and downloaded directly from Sentinel but it keeps showing me this warning, is it a problem with the data or some configuration?
Thanks!

Sorry for the delay - I missed your message.
1) you said you followed the configuration in the documentation - do you mean from the workflow best practices starting here
https://doc.arcgis.com/en/imagery/workflows/resources/managing-medium-resolution-satellite-data.htm
where you found and downloaded sample Python scripts for managing Sentinel-2 scenes ?
2) You said you're getting a warning - do you mean the error message above: "Error: 8004818c: No new mosaic dataset item was added." ?
Can you send a screenshot or directory listing showing your Sentinel-2 files? The folder and file structure is somewhat complicated so I want to be sure you have all the necessary files. If you view the folder in the Catalog pane in ArcGIS Pro, do you see the Raster Product icon
and if you drop that into the map, does that one image load successfully?
(I understand that you're seeking to make a mosaic dataset with multiple scenes, but this last test will help confirm you have all the necessary source files)
