Planet University

New courses are available on Planet University! 

Orbital Bloom, our newly designed course, is available to the public and contains the Planet imagery needed to complete it. It’s a self-contained exercise that demonstrates how to use Planet Imagery in ArcGIS Pro. Perfect for new users or for teachers who want to introduce Planet imagery to their classes. 

We've revamped our Introduction to Planetscope course and made it more informative, interactive, and fun! Our Planetscope satellites are the powerhouse of our imagery so be sure to check out the course!
