We encourage all Planet Community members to submit their thoughts on how we can improve Planet’s data and products. The Ideas section is a space where you can share your thoughts with Planet, and make a difference in Planet’s products! You can also upvote other members’ ideas and help amplify their voice. 

Send us your ideas about how to make Planet even better! The Planet Public Ideation Process post explains how to post ideas and how your ideas are evaluated.

Here are some of the top ideas so far:

NICFI Forum

To help fight against deforestation and climate change, everyone can access Planet’s high-resolution optical satellite imagery of the world’s tropics through the NICFI Satellite Data Program. In this section of the community you can find stories of NICFI users and see highlights of how NICFI data is used in different applications around the world.

Check out one of the user stories recently shared on Planet Community about monitoring illegal activities in Colombia.
