Planetary Variables: Soil Water Content Validation WhitepaperBlog

Attached is a whitepaper that covers both a spatial and temporal validation of Planet’s latest Soil Water Content product.The paper, which is partly based on Planet’s own field measurements, does a great job explaining why the validation of soil water content is so challenging. Other interesting topics covered are the number of in-situ measurements you need to get an equivalent of 1 Soil Water Content pixel (spoiler alert, this is 7!) within the same uncertainty and results of many temporal validations showing Pearson correlations up to 0.9.Please reach out to https://www.planet.com/contact-sales/ with any questions!

📸 Cool Weekly Imagery: Madagascar 📸

This picture was taken on December 1, 2014. Red silt from the Betsiboka River mixes with the blue-green water of the Indian Ocean in Madagascar’s Bombetoka Bay. The red color of the river is due to iron-rich soil eroded from the central highlands. https://www.planet.com/gallery/#!/post/betsiboka-estuary

Question with planet image processing for NDVI

I have a question about how planet is processing NDVIs I can download a 4 or 8 band image from planet and then process it in Qgis using the NDVI formula (NIR-Red) / (NIR+Red) and get a nice looking NDVI.When I get the same image from the API and drag it into Qgis the image has much lower total reflectance its about 70% darker. For example in the hand processed image Low value Vs high value is .219 and .585 in the same image that is pulled from the API the value is -.04 and .268 In the subscription there is a line called bandmath. "type": "bandmath","parameters"": {"b1": "(b4-b3)/(b4+b3)"," "pixel_type": "32R"}} it looks like bandmath is running the same NDVI formula I am B4 is Nir and B3 is Red how am I getting such different values between the two processes and why is there negative values in every image I get? I have maybe once hand processed a good image that had a low of less than .12 ( a -.04 maybe) and never high much above .90 Any ideas what processing is going on with the plane

Using Planet data to map coral reefs in Buccoo Reef, Tobago

Hello everyone, my team and I are utilizing Planet data for reef assessment in Buccoo Reef, Tobago. Reefs in the Caribbean region have suffered a substantial loss of 60% - 80% since 1970s and Tobago have been severely affected. We hope to use our results to implement monitoring and management strategies for the Buccoo Reef. Here is a similar paper that I’ve found using Planet Dove Satellites for reef assessment: https://zslpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/rse2.42 Excited to post our results soon!

What techniques are you using to co-register your Planet imagery?

Hi Planet Users!I wanted to start a conversation around co-registration and learn about the ways you are doing it. What techniques are you using and what software or platforms are you using to implement it? Planet’s API’s do have a co-registration tool-chain that can be used on a API order - see documentation here, however, we know that there are other workflows that might work best for you. Looking forward to hearing how you co-register Planet imagery!
