Hi,
I am using PlanetScope commercial data.
Just wanted to get clarity on the processing units usage. By definition in the docs:
Each request costs a proportional amount of processing unit(s), depending on what data and processing is requested. One processing unit (PU) is defined as a request for:
- an output (image) size of 512 x 512 pixels,
- 3 collection input bands,
- one data
sampleper pixel (see sample),
- an output (image) format not exceeding 16 bits per pixel,
- without additional processing (e.g. orthorectification) applied,
In addition to this:
- Minimal cost of a request is
- 0.005 PU for Process API and OGC API,
- 0.01 PU for Statistical API.
- The number of remaining processing units is reduced only when a request successfully executes, i.e. when the response code is
2XX.
What I understand, is that ingestion of data into my subscription is not considered in the processing units. However, I can see my processing units depleting fast, even when I have not used any API thereafter. This happens whenever I add a new subscription.
Also, is there a provision to understand what request caused consumption of how many processing units?
Many thanks,
