[Agile EO Webinar Series] Planet Field Boundaries - Resources and Q&A

In this month of Planet’s Agile EO Webinar Series, we covered our newest Planetary Variable, Field Boundaries (FB). This is the first PV that we have built in Slovenia after the acquisition of Sinergise. FB contains a dataset of polygons that represents the boundaries of agricultural fields for your areas of interest anywhere around the globe. Agricultural field boundaries serve as the foundational framework for a wide range of analyses from food security to supply chain traceability to commodities trading. You can watch the on-demand recording here. If you want to learn more about Field Boundaries, please contact a representative in your region: North and South America - matthew.walkley@planet.com, Asia Pacific - janelle.ting@planet.com, and Europe/Middle East/Africa - lukas.aitken@planet.com. Below you’ll find some FAQs and top questions from the live webinar. Questions & Answers Definition and characteristics of field boundariesWhat is the minimum field size that is reliabl

Cloud masking with UDM for snow & ice regions

Hi! Has anyone insights into the quality of the UDM mask (clouds especially) for snow-covered regions?Below you can see an image (2017-08-01, 45.97N, 7.35E) with some glaciers & snow and the corresponding cloud mask from the UDM layer.You can notice: a lot of snow/ice areas are miss-classified as clouds there is a line that separates the cloud mask into two sub-regions (the data comes from two different stripes); what's strange is that one sub-region has many more FPs than the other; looks like the algorithm behind is very sensitive to the underlying sensorI’m wondering if it is common that snow & ice are frequently classified as clouds. I’m more familiar with the Sentinel-2 data and there the masks usually manage to capture the difference between snow and clouds.Has anyone experience in this area?Thanks!

Rescaling Color Channels for Keras

This question is not about visualization so it may not be related to https://community.planet.com/topic/show?tid=159&fid=3 even there are some similarities. My issue is that I am feeding a Keras model where I need to basically use a 0.0 to 1.0 color space. Now for regular RGB images I would simply do a rescaling with /255. For Sentinel2 I’d do /10000 but what is the correct factor for Planet```PSSceneAsset types ortho_analytic_4b_sr ortho_analytic_4b_xml ortho_udm2```I do not want an individual range per scene but a “standard” rescaling factor. If there are outliers (as with Sentinel2 NIR channel) this would be Ok.thank you very much for your support.

Configs definition of keys (gte, gt, lt, lte, gsd ...)

Hi folks,I am working with the Data API and I have a question that is really not covered by documentation (https://developers.planet.com/docs/apis/data/searches-filtering/).What do these configs really mean (gte, gt, lt, lte, gsd...) ? Because some of them store not only one data type, for example lte:In the DateRangeFilter "lte":"2020-01-31T00:00:00Z", but in the RangeFilter it is a float - "lte":0.1, or even an integer (https://developers.planet.com/docs/apis/data/quick-saved-search/ or here https://developers.planet.com/docs/subscriptions/tools/). Thanks!

Hi, I am new to Planet and am currently going through the tutorials, etc., but I have a quick question on data. I downloaded some imagery yesterday, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for. It came clipped and also complete as an RGB image. I was hoping for something more like you would get in Earth Explorer with a Tile covering the area and individual bands of imagery so I can do ratios and data fusion. Is this possible with Planet imagery? Thanks for any assistance or advice.

Specific information about the satellites and constellations.

Hello every one!I would like to know if there is any document up to date that contains information about all the satélites, such as its constellation, the day of launch, orbital parameters and so on. I have looked for it and couldn't find anything, if anyone knows where I can find this info other than in Planet Labs public ephemerides I would really apreciated it.

Smoothing PlanetScope Raw Data to Eliminate Unusual Lines/Stripes

Hi, I'm currently working on estimating chlorophyll-a (chl-a) concentrations in large water bodies using PlanetScope raw data, enhanced with acolite atmospheric correction. However, I've encountered a consistent issue where some scenes exhibit unusual lines or stripes, which I suspect to be noise. This has happened across multiple data sets and seems to disrupt the accuracy of my chl-a concentration readings. Upon reviewing the PlanetScope data documentation (https://developers.planet.com/docs/apis/data/sensors/#the-psbsd-instrument), I understand that each frame consists of eight stripes. I believe these are causing the discrepancies in chl-a concentrations, as values significantly differ from one side of a stripe to the other. This variance is impacting the trustworthiness of my output. Here's an image for reference

Regarding planet story through an event

Please advise me on how to create a planet story through a flood event. A few months earlier I was able to create a planet story through a flood event, the imagery showed the time-lapse daily, but today I was trying to create a similar story for a different watershed and was unable to find imagery on a daily basis, only one image was available for the whole month.

Trying to access imagery outside of my Tier using the Subscription API

Hello Everyone! I am writing this post to ask if anyone knows what happens when you try to download imagery from outside of your signed Tier using the Subscription API. E.g. in my case, I have a contract that lets me download imagery for a given polygon from Japan (Tier 1), so if an user mistakenly tries to download data from, let’s say, the US, my subscription creation will fail and throw an error or will I be charged for this?I already read this documentation, however I could not find an explicit reference to this problem. Although, I am guessing I would get a 403 error (Unauthorized). I would appreciate it if someone could answer my question. Thanks in advance!

How to request 4-band basemaps?

Hello, I am trying to figure out how to use either the basemaps api or the orders api to download polygon selections of basemaps.

PlanetScope Ortho Tiles and CSDA license

Hello,Recently I have started using Planet Imagery through a CSDA license for the first time in about a year. Last year we were using PlanetScope Ortho Tiles through the same license. Upon recently browsing Planet Explorer I do not see an option for PlanetScope Ortho Tiles anymore. Are these still available to CSDA users? If so how can we go about accessing them? Thanks,Andrew

Cloud and Shadow Masking with UDM

Dear Community,I would like to find out how to deal with cloud masking using the UDM2 data from the PlanetScope.I already acquired an image that is cloud-free (from metadata cloud is 0.16). Do I need to do any cloud processing or masking? since this cloud percentage is basically insignificant.Again, I used a shape-file to acquire the image of my location since I want the image to span a period of data range; how do I go about the image mosaicing process?Thank you for the help

Sentinel Hub Webinar: Satellite Data Empowering Environmental NGO Work

REGISTER HEREHow to use Earth Observation data to support communication and action for the environment?Earth Observation allows anyone to engage with verified, real-time information on many environmental issues. Social media gives users such as non-governmental organizations (NGOs) the opportunity to reach many people with their messages. Crises on a global scale can be illustrated in a compelling way using images and time series of affected locations, supported by a wide range of visualization tools that do not require geo-information skills. At the local level, satellite imagery enables accurate quantification of the temporal and spatial extent of environmental change, which can be used as evidence in legal cases. In addition to the freely available imagery from the Sentinel and Landsat satellites, high-resolution commercial imagery from Planet is also available at an affordable price.During this 30-minute live webinar, the presenter Andras Zlinszky will show you:How to search, find

Cloud Masking and Image Download for PlanetScope Imagery in Google Earth Engine

'm relatively new to the Planet API, having engaged with it for just over a week. Following the GEE-Integration guide, I've successfully exported data to Google Earth Engine. Now, I'm working on cloud masking for a cloud-free composite using the asset type "ortho_analytic_4b_sr" and the scene "PSScene". I have around 122 images in the collection. I've come across "udm2" for cloud masking but I'm uncertain about its implementation. Also, once the requirements are met, could you guide me on downloading it? I'm unclear on parameters such as scale and maxPixel; my attempt to download a single image seemed off from the expected result.Appreciate your assistance.

Night Time Imagery?

I am new to the platform and can’t find any reference to night-time imagery as I’d like to do a classification of illuminated areas. I can understand not having that imagery stored regularly as it is less applicable to most people. However, could this be tasked, can I find examples of this? Any guidance would be appreciated!

Creating data from satellite images

Hello.I have recently acquired an education and research standards account.I use this wonderful satellite imagery to study conflicts and wars around the world.The best example of this is the data file of Russian military trenches in Ukraine.This data is used in many OSINT maps.I previously created this file based on Sentinel-2 imagery using QGIS and thought the 3 meter resolution would improve the accuracy of the data.I am trying to download satellite imagery from Basemap and use QGIS to create new data. Is there any possibility of violating the terms and conditions?I have used translations and read the terms and conditions that might apply, but I do not see any such thing.I have included the actual data and images of the work made using sentinel satellite imagery.I would appreciate it if you could answer my question.
