Planet Labs PBC announced Planet Insights Platform, the all-in-one place for creating Earth insights. Planet Insights Platform is a milestone in the journey to unify Planet?s product portfolio and the power of Sentinel Hub, which Planet acquired last year. Combining Planet?s analysis-ready Earth data products with cloud-based analytics and tools will allow users to efficiently analyze, stream, and distribute data at scale, so they can make decisions reliably and with confidence.

With this launch, Planet is enabling broad area management solutions that allow governments and businesses around the world to unlock Earth observation data and get answers. The platform brings together new capabilities that dramatically improve customers? capacity to analyze and orchestrate large volumes of Earth data, reduce upfront development and maintenance costs, and focus on differentiation.

These updates include: A unified account experience across Planet & Sentinel Hub: By linking the two platforms, users will now be able to access cloud hosting and imagery analysis tools from Sentinel Hub through a single login. Enhanced Analysis-Ready PlanetScope data: Analysis-Ready PlanetScope uses proprietary AI to create harmonized, cloud-masked, and spatially consistent daily stacks of images, which enable time-series analysis and machine learning applications. Updated global Road & Building Change Detection: Planet?s Road & Building Change Detection AI-based models point to where development is taking place across country-wide areas, on a weekly basis.

This can help users clearly understand how and where the places they care most about are evolving. New and improved Planetary Variables: Field Boundaries trace the boundaries of agricultural parcels, giving insights into different crop types and growth throughout the season. Additionally, Crop Biomass Planetary Variable now integrates Planet?s daily, global PlanetScope data, offering a cloud-free, analysis-ready data product for monitoring agricultural fields.

Time series and statistical analysis: Within the Planet Insights Platform, users can efficiently translate imagery into formats best suited for advanced data science and AI /ML models. With the Planet Insights Platform, users can build insights and solutions, make decisions, and act faster. Planet Insights Platform aims to provide users with robust, multidimensional Earth data that are accessible and actionable at the moment of inquiry.
