Annotations, bulk downloading

On behalf of a customer:Need ability to annotate images over a a multi month period and ends up taking screenshots and saving in a slide deck instead of being able to save within Planet Explorer. Minimal technical background so much time has been spent learning how to use QGIS to accomplish this

Hello I am new to satellite imagery and I can’t get it how to task for high resolution imagery for a specific location so I can than further edit images in Arc GIS Pro and get isocurves of terrain. I also bought a subscription to Sentinel hub.

SkySat Update

On June 26, our Mission Operations team managed the final operations and reentry of one of our decommissioned SkySats. As a part of our commitment to responsible space use, bringing this SkySat down from space ensured that it would not pose a risk to other spacecraft or further contribute to space debris. As a reminder, this is a planned re-entry and does not have any notable impact our high-resolution fleet’s capacity or customers’ tasking abilities, because Planet’s agile aerospace approach optimizes capabilities around a constellation of satellites, and the team has continued to innovate and improve our tasking capabilities across the program. We are able to apply learnings from the SkySat fleet as we now look forward to launching the upcoming in-space tech demo of high-resolution Pelicans in the near future.

how to task correctly for repeated surveys?

Hello!I would like to task a mission for a repeated 1-month long observation over a polygon.In the tasking menu I selected my date span and also a order type (single photo - 1 photo per pass).Seems correct, however, the estimated quota is 32km2 which equals the area of my polygon. Is here something wrong or repeating photos over same area does not increase the quota?
