Request for Extension of my Education and Research account

Dear Sir/Madam,I am currently utilizing PlanetScope imagery for the data analysis of my scientific research project. Nevertheless, I have noticed that the expiration date of my Education and Research Account has passed. I would like to inquire whether it is possible to apply for an extension of the account validity period. Moreover, at present, I am in great need of a substantial amount of data. Hence, I wonder if it would be feasible to increase the monthly download limit of my account. Thank you very much for your kind assistance.I am looking forward to your reply.

Color difference

Hi, I have downloaded RapidEye spectral reflectance image analytic products for 2011, 2013, 2015, 2017, and 2019. No color balancing was applied to create a seamless color because it may alter the original reflectance value. Now, if you look at the attached images from 2013, it looks like there is a binary color difference. Also, there is a square shape in the 2011 images. If I use these images for biomass modeling, will this color difference cause a problem or error? If so, how can it be fixedin QGIS? Any suggestions in this matter are highly appreciated. Thank you.

Dear Planet Support Team,I hope this message finds you well. I previously had a student account with Planet, which allowed me to access and download satellite imagery at 3.5-meter resolution. However, I am currently encountering an issue where it states, "no plans have been set up."As a student, this access has been crucial for my academic research, and I would greatly appreciate your assistance in reactivating my student account. Could you please guide me on how to regain access to my student plan or inform me of any steps I need to take to renew my eligibility?Thank you for your time and support. I look forward to your response.Best regards,Laura Capie

Have quarterly basemaps changed size over the years?

I would like to download quarterly basemaps over my area of interest. I would like data from the first available basemap (global_quarterly_2016q1_mosaic) to the last available (global_quarterly_2024q2_mosaic). I noticed that my query returns 714 unique basemaps for the first time period and 205 for the last time period. The area I get is also very different. I plotted the polygons that define the basemaps and in both cases they completly cover my AOI, but at obviously different resolutions. Do the basemaps share a common resolution across all time periods or have they changed at some point? Need to know if there is a bug in my code, or if this is a feature of the data itself. Thanks!

Monthly NDVI values with a Education and Research Standard (PlanetScope) subscription

Hello geowizars,I have a question. I would like to use monthly or quarterly mosaic data for my analysis and I saw that there are also montly or quarterly NDVI mosaics available. But I do not see how to get them? I tried everything, in QGIS, ArcGIS, Planet Explorer, Planet Orders, etc. Has this to do with my Education and Research Standard (PlanetScope) subscription?

Creating DEM or DTM data

DearI have a problem. I have an academic account and they guided me that I am eligible for 5,000 km2 of 3m data with Planet's Basic Research Account. I want to create a DEM or DTM file from the Planet Explorer, but I do not know how to do that. I have some questions:Does Planet Explorer be able to create DEM or DTM data? If yes, how could I download it or create a TIF or txt file and download it? My study case is in “Ponzano di Civitella del Tronto” in Italy. Does it cover this area?Thanks for your response,I look forward to hearing from you,Sincerely,Amir Farshadfar

How to get an up to date reference on the size of the PlanetScope Constellation?

I need a current reference for some general information on the size of the PlanetScope constellation for a scientific article. Even on the Planet website there are multiple values for the size of the constellation:130+: https://developers.planet.com/docs/data/planetscope/#:~:text=PlanetScope%2C%20operated%20by%20Planet%2C%20is,3%20meters%20per%20pixel%20resolution. updated March 2024. ~200 https://www.planet.com/products/monitoring/180+ https://www.planet.com/products/planet-imagery/ Which would be the best value to accurately present the size of the constellation?

Imagery in Planet Explorer not loading at full resolution

Hi,I have a “Planet’s Basic Education & Research” account. And since some weeks ago, the daily imagery on Planet Explorer is not loading at full resolution. In fact the resolution displayed in the main map window see to be the same than the thumbnail image on the left bar with available dates. I can still order the image and I can download it in full resolution, but I can not see it at full resolution in the explorer as I used to do.Anyone knows why this happens?Thanks!!

Unable to access monthly basemap full resolution images

Hello!I joined the Education and Research Program very early. I have always been able to access the basemap full-resolution data and quarterly full-resolution data. However, after I just logged into the system, I found that I could no longer access the full-resolution data. The prompt was "full resolution". Rates require purchase. I would like to know what the current policy is on this area. Is it true that personnel in education and research programs cannot access it? Looking forward to your reply！

How to order a (SR) basemap?

Hello,I’ve been trying to figure out what HTTP request I need to create to get a surface reflectance base map.Here’s the code I’ve created, which can download RGB basemaps. Am I missing a tag or field to get the surface reflectance basemaps?Also I’m on the student/educational API planAlso, I believe I attempted to post this same question last week, but I got something along the lines of “the mods will review your post”, but I don’t think anything ever happened there...# This code is all in a class, but I don't think pasting the entire file is relevantself.ORDERS_API_URL = 'https://api.planet.com/compute/ops/orders/v2'# Order api stuff for basemaps def download_basemap(self, session, request, download_location, file_prefix): #POST request to get data headers = {'content-type': 'application/json'} response = session.post(self.ORDERS_API_URL, data=json.dumps(request), headers=headers) print(response.json()) #Construct url for getting request status

Question about Hi-Res imagery download

Greetings all,First of please allow me to say that I am brand new to this platform, and I am not super familiar with all that it has to offer (I am slowly making my way through the Planet University vids) so go easy on me ;) Currently I am working with a student who is interested in detection of invasive plant species based on their spectral signature. For this I need Hi Res imagery (0.5m/px) of my area of interest, which already exist in Planet Explorer.I am not able to download these two images (or better yet, I do not know how to download) for my student project. (20210624_190141_ssc10d1_0015, and 20210624_190141_ssc10d1_0014) The “Order Scenes” button is grayed out.Currently, there is no reason to task new image acquisition because at this time of the year, the plants have already shed their foliage, and I cannot wait until next summer, the project needs to be finished before April. Any guidance is greatly appreciated,Ovidiu
