Count of days with images meeting filter criteria in Explorer

I have an extensive list of small AOIs and am manually screening them to download the useful images for my project. Is there an easy method to get the total count of days with images that meet my filters and dates in each AOI? Each day shows up in the Daily Scenes panel and on the timeline at the bottom of the map, so this information exists, but doesn’t seem readily available. Thanks!

Query Regarding Vegetation indices

Hi!I have been trying to compute some vegetation indices suing 8band PS data. The generated NDVI his in its range of -1 to +1 but I am not able to get the suitable range for other indices like EVI, EVI2 etc. These indices are coming up in ranges of -4000 to +5000 with most of the data concentrated between 0 and 2. Could you please tell why is it happening?I am using Qgis for the computation of these indices.

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

How to remove cloud cover from RapidEye?

Hi, Hope you are doing well. I have downloaded nearly 50 tiles of the wet tropical rainforest of Australia, and a few tiles have severe cloud cover even after applying the filter function of Planet Explorer.  So, how can I remove those clouds? Unfortunately, there are no reference images available without Cloud for those locations in near times (2019). I am using QGIS. Any suggestions in this matter are highly appreciated. Kind regards,Shawkat

Regarding planet story through an event

Please advise me on how to create a planet story through a flood event. A few months earlier I was able to create a planet story through a flood event, the imagery showed the time-lapse daily, but today I was trying to create a similar story for a different watershed and was unable to find imagery on a daily basis, only one image was available for the whole month.

Past Flood event

Hello Dear Members, I am doing a research on Eastern Europe 2013 floods specifically the flood happened in Elbe River, Germany. But so far, I can not find any image or type of data older than 2015-2016. If anyone has an idea how to solve a problem I would be grateful. Regards,

How to clip mulipolygon?

This question was originally asked July 18, 2022 06:55 by user Timur MyrzagalievI have around 3000 AOI distributed over the region. Instead of clipping one by one, I want to clip multiple AOI together if they have the same scene. For example, I have scene id X and 10 AOI's that lies within this scene?  "tools": [ { "clip": { "aoi": { "type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [ object_coors ] } } }]Should I change the type to Multipolygon and give coordinates or should something different be written? The second question is, can I give the list of scene ids and all coordinates that intersect with these scenes? Will this work? For sure, i will not exceed 500 vertices limit
