The PlanetScope Level 1B Basic Scene and Level 3B Ortho Scene full archive products are available as part of Planet imagery offer.
The PlanetScope Basic Scene product is a Scaled Top of Atmosphere Radiance (at sensor) and sensor corrected product, without correction for any geometric distortions inherent in the imaging processes and is not mapped to a cartographic projection. The imagery data is accompanied by Rational Polynomial Coefficients (RPCs) to enable orthorectification by the user.
This kind of product is designed for users with advanced image processing and geometric correction capabilities.
| Product Components |
|
| Bands | 3-band natural colour (red, green, blue) or 4-band multispectral image (blue, green, red, near-infrared) |
| Ground Sampling Distance | 3.7 m at nadir (average at reference altitude 475 km) |
| Accuracy | <10 m RMSE |
The PlanetScope Ortho Scene product is radiometrically-, sensor- and geometrically- corrected and is projected to a cartographic map projection. The geometric correction uses fine Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) with a post spacing of between 30 and 90 metres.
| Product Components |
|
| Bands | 3-band natural colour (red, green, blue) |
| Ground Sampling Distance | 3.7 m at nadir (average at reference altitude 475 km) |
| Projection | UTM WGS84 |
| Accuracy | <10 m RMSE |
PlanetScope Visual Ortho Scene product is orthorectified and color-corrected (using a colour curve) 3-band RGB Imagery. This correction attempts to optimise colours as seen by the human eye providing images as they would look if viewed from the perspective of the satellite
PlanetScope Analytic Ortho Scene product is orthorectified, 4-band BGRN Imagery with geometric, radiometric and atmospheric correction. This data is optimal for value-added image processing such as land cover classifications.
