Education And Research Program Enhances Global Accessibility And User Capabilities

From economists to ecologists, our Education and Research Program enables researchers from around the globe to dive into Planet’s datasets and explore a world of near limitless research insights.

And starting today, we are transforming the program to offer greater global accessibility and enhanced user capabilities! Through a new tiered pricing system, we aim to serve more universities from more countries than ever before.

With this program transformation, we are also offering our high-resolution SkySat data to our E&R users, a first for a university program in the satellite data industry.

@elyhienrich I just browsed through the article quickly but did I read that right? will the E&R program now be offering a limited amount of SkySat imagery?

This sounds great! I was wondering if the basic education and research accounts also will be provided with the access to SkySat data? I just checked this with my account and seems not available for me.

Hi, @deanesh.ramsewak and @Milad Niroumand-Jadidi,

To answer both of your questions. There are no changes to the basic E&R accounts - the big changes are that the SkySat archive is to be added to campus accounts and a tiered pricing system for increased global access.

Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Thanks for the clarification @elyhienrich
