Planet Labs<\/strong>, a leading provider of daily data and insights about change on Earth, announced the general availability of its Tanager-1 satellite\u2019s data products to customers in celebration of the one-year anniversary of the satellite\u2019s first light images. Planet customers will now be able to purchase Tanager core imagery to support analyses of Earth\u2019s surface and atmosphere, as well as a new Methane Quicklook product generated in collaboration with Carbon Mapper.<\/p>\n

Data made available through Tanager-1 can support a variety of customer use cases. Methane Quicklook data will allow customers to access initial emission quantification estimates to support rapid detection and repair for methane leaks. Planet\u2019s Tanager-1 core hyperspectral imagery products radiance and surface reflectance, can support a wide array of applications, including mineral mapping, biodiversity and ecosystem health, agricultural management, urban area mapping, disasters, and wildfire risk and response.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to mark the mission\u2019s progress by making these powerful new data products available to Planet customers,\u201d said Robbie Schingler<\/strong>, Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer of Planet<\/strong>. \u201cEarly analysis gives us confidence that Tanager\u2019s hyperspectral data will be proven to be science-grade and nearly ideal radiometric quality, and it therefore has incredible potential to help inform strategic planning and decision-making across a range of industries, from mitigating methane leaks to better understanding natural resource mapping. The quality of the data is a testament to the extraordinary NASA JPL design and the workmanship of the Planet-built and calibrated instrument. As we celebrate this major milestone, we are incredibly optimistic about the future and the new applications our customers will discover with Tanager data.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tanager-1\u2019s first set of imagery of Karachi, Pakistan, was taken and released last September. In the year since, Tanager-1 has provided data used by Carbon Mapper to detect and quantify thousands of methane and CO2<\/sub> plumes. This is in addition to its collection of over 69,000 data points, consisting of over 31 million square kilometers globally.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the year since its launch, Tanager-1 has opened up new dimensions of Earth observation for Planet and our partners, detecting over 5,500 plumes across nearly 3,200 sources. From actionable methane detection solutions to core imagery datasets, we can now utilize Tanager\u2019s full potential to help customers reach their efficiency and sustainability objectives,\u201d said Trevor McDonald<\/strong>, Planet Senior Product Manager, Imagery<\/strong>. \u201cWith more Tanager satellites on the horizon, we\u2019re excited to continue developing our robust hyperspectral constellation and product offerings.”<\/p>\n

As part of these new offerings, Tanager-1 is now available to task core imagery products such as radiance and surface reflectance, as well as Planet\u2019s Methane Quicklook product. Customers can consume these datasets with Tasking Credits for new tasks and archive, or subscribe to Methane Monitoring available in selected regions. The Methane Monitoring subscription service will provide quarterly Tanager and associated methane data in regions that fall within two key geographies: the Permian Basin (encompassing parts of Texas and New Mexico) and the Denver-Julesburg Basin in Colorado. These geographies were intentionally selected to provide data across key oil and gas regions in the U.S. by helping operators monitor, identify, and address leaks \u2013 helping boost efficiency, mitigate environmental impacts, and reduce cost.<\/p>\n

Tanager-1, Planet\u2019s first hyperspectral satellite, was made possible through a first-of-its-kind, philanthropically-funded partnership of organizations led by Carbon Mapper. Tanager-1\u2019s advanced imaging spectrometer technology was pioneered by the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory and leverages Planet\u2019s next-generation smallsat bus. Tanager-1 is built to image across over 400 spectral bands, with 30-meter spatial resolution. Planet plans to launch additional Tanager satellites in collaboration with Carbon Mapper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
