PlanetScope 8 bands and UDM mask

Hello,

I would like to know how exactly are handled the dubious pixels of the PlanetScope 8 bands in the UDM mask (8th band of the UDM2 mask)

Indeed, in the specification, it looks like only the first 5 bands are handled.

Am I missing something ?

Best,

Rémi

Hi Rémi,

Thanks for the question, I see the documentation (page 96-97) needs to be updated. In the meantime, a succinct description of each bit in the UDM mask for SuperDove is below.

Best,

Amit
