Q&A + Resources - Agile EO: Fast, Flexible Tasking

In the April Agile EO episode, we introduced Single Order Tasking with our partners at SkyFi. Single Order Tasking allows you to fulfill ad hoc projects or individual tasks with a 100% online, pay-as-you-go self-service portal. Watch the webinar on-demand now or jump right in and get started with Single Order Tasking. Below are answers to common questions and some questions that we weren’t able to get to during the live event. Our hosts, Mark Jeffrey, Partner Business Manager at Planet, and Claire Fundingsland, Customer Experience Director at SkyFi, have provided answers, plus resources to learn more. Question: What happens if my image is cloudy?Answer: For Flexible Tasking, we guarantee a maximum cloud cover of no more than 15%. For Assured Tasking, you are booking the satellite to capture an image at a specific date and time, so we recommend checking the forecast prior to booking to ensure a clear day as we do not guarantee a maximum cloud coverage for assured tasking. Question: How

Consistent Colorization of Multiple Shots?

I ordered imagery for a large area and the result was several shots. Is it possible to symbolize them in such a way that they have the same color range? Thank you,Randy McGregor

Skysat - Vegetation Indexes

Dear allI’m working with a set of images collected through satellite tasking and would like to calculate some vegetation indexes such as NDVI and EVI. I have downloaded the TOA and SR images (both 16-bit unsigned raster). I tried re-scaling each band by the maximum pixel value before calculating the indexes and it seems to work for NDVI but not for EVI, which returns indexes completely out of range (for both, TOA and SR). This result makes me wonder if the NDVI I calculated is correct. Does anyone have experience with something similar and can recommend a procedure or reference to a material that can help me understand how to work with the imagery for this purpose?ThanksCM

Annotations, bulk downloading

On behalf of a customer:Need ability to annotate images over a a multi month period and ends up taking screenshots and saving in a slide deck instead of being able to save within Planet Explorer. Minimal technical background so much time has been spent learning how to use QGIS to accomplish this

SkySat 0.5m high resolution images

Hi I was trying to search SkySat 0.5m high resolution images on the Planet Explorer by checking SkySat scene and collect, somehow I couldn’t find anything anywhere. About half year ago, I could find these images at many locations. I saved a few links with for those search results and these links don’t work anymore. I just wondered if there is any change to the SkySat data archive lately? My search for 3m PlanetScope images is usually successful at many locations and date ranges.I would really appreciate it if someone could help me on this.

Help needed

Hello I am new to satellite imagery and I can’t get it how to task for high resolution imagery for a specific location so I can than further edit images in Arc GIS Pro and get isocurves of terrain. I also bought a subscription to Sentinel hub.

SkySat Update

On June 26, our Mission Operations team managed the final operations and reentry of one of our decommissioned SkySats. As a part of our commitment to responsible space use, bringing this SkySat down from space ensured that it would not pose a risk to other spacecraft or further contribute to space debris. As a reminder, this is a planned re-entry and does not have any notable impact our high-resolution fleet’s capacity or customers’ tasking abilities, because Planet’s agile aerospace approach optimizes capabilities around a constellation of satellites, and the team has continued to innovate and improve our tasking capabilities across the program. We are able to apply learnings from the SkySat fleet as we now look forward to launching the upcoming in-space tech demo of high-resolution Pelicans in the near future.

how to task correctly for repeated surveys?

Hello!I would like to task a mission for a repeated 1-month long observation over a polygon.In the tasking menu I selected my date span and also a order type (single photo - 1 photo per pass).Seems correct, however, the estimated quota is 32km2 which equals the area of my polygon. Is here something wrong or repeating photos over same area does not increase the quota?
