Do you use or want to use Planet’s data in conjunction with a GIS software (ESRI’s ArcGIS, QGIS, GEE etc.)?

 

If yes, then please feel free to share your projects, questions, and ideas in the forum, and tag the name of the software you use!

Hi, I am currently using PlanetScope SuperDove 8-band imagery for land use/cover mapping. Based on supervised object-based image classification in ArcGIS Pro.

Hello, New user grief here. Planet’s support desk is a broken record of useless platitudes.
I’m trying to install QGIS on an Apple machine running running Monterey 12.6
The error message when trying to open the application is below.  Any suggestions?

Hi terezakis, you likely can select “open anyway” from System Preferences->security & privacy if you are confident in the installation’s validity. 

 

You can also try to redownload the newest version of QGIS here , and older versions from the “all releases” tab on that site. 

 

Please report back on if either of those options work for you!
