Pretraining generalist Earth observation foundation models requires data that combine several sensors, varied temporal sampling and, increasingly, text, yet open datasets rarely provide all three in one consistent, easily accessible form. We introduce MajorTOM:Elliot Pretrain, a collection of 279,166 tiles of 10 km drawn from the Major-TOM grid by clustering AlphaEarth embeddings. Each tile stacks Sentinel-2 L1C, Landsat-8/9, Sentinel-1 RTC, Copernicus DEM and ESA WorldCover on a shared 1056x1056-pixel, 10 m grid, complemented by cloud masks, OpenStreetMap entities and ERA5 weather. The tiles are partitioned into three temporal regimes, Monotemporal (250,000 tiles, one acquisition), Monthly (12,500 tiles, twelve acquisitions spread over the annual cycle) and Burst (16,666 tiles, six acquisitions within 30 days), and are released as 6.3 TB of Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs indexed by TACO v3 Parquet metadata, a standard that allows cloud streaming, efficient data access, and filtering before any pixel is read. A companion library derives sensor-tagged fact sheets, captions and 16 families of vision-language tasks from these layers at load time. We test our design choices in short pretraining runs of OlmoEarth-Base. First, a 25% subset of Major-TOM Core-S2L2A curated with AlphaEarth embeddings matches or exceeds the full corpus on 8 of 9 benchmarks. Second, on Elliot-Pretrain, adding Landsat-8/9 improves or matches Sentinel-2 only pretraining on every benchmark. Third, using DEM and WorldCover as prediction targets during pretraining further improves 8 of 9 benchmarks, while giving the same maps to the encoder as inputs degrades 5 of 9. Fourth, Sentinel-1 helps on 7 of 9 benchmarks, particularly on benchmarks with radar inputs. Fifth, rule-based captions match a small language model at no cost.
