Planet Platform
An automated, accessible, scalable, and API-first satellite imagery platform from Planet.
What It Is
Access and Integrate Satellite Imagery and Data Using Planet Platform
Planet Platform is an entirely automated, cloud-based imagery and analytics platform that provides access to the comprehensive, daily dataset captured by the PlanetScope and SkySat constellations.
PlanetScope
RGB and NIR bands, 3.7m spatial resolution, captured by Planet’s Dove constellation
SkySat
RGB, NIR, and pan bands, 0.5 spatial resolution
Planet Platform downloads, processes, and manages 15+ terabytes of data every day. This unique satellite dataset lives online, making access and download for customers simple through web-based tools and user-friendly APIs and GUIs.
