I’m currently a PhD student using Planet imagery for some of my projects. I have written some Python imagery download scripts to help gather imagery for my research via https://api.planet.com/data/v1 and am wondering if it is possible to access the clip tool for surface reflectance (_sr) assets through the educational access. This would be great because it would save a lot of storage space and let me not worry about exceeding my monthly quota. Any info is appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Phillip

Hi Phillip

 

You can clip your imagery using our orders API tool. The documentation for it can be found here: https://developers.planet.com/apis/orders/tools/#clip along with a sample payload for your order.

 

You should also check out our guthub repo where we have notebooks on how these tools can be used:
