If you are interested in conducting analysis with Planet Labs data within Google Earth Engine (GEE) environment, then this workshop if for you.  GEE supports delivery integration from Planet’s Orders API.

  • Set up Google Cloud Project (GCP) and Google Earth Engine (GEE) environment
  • Create a direct connection from planet’s API to GEE to send imagery to your GEE account
  • Load and visualize PlanetScope (Dove) satellite imagery (true color and false color composites)
  • Calculate spectral indices and classify land cover types based on spectral characteristics using PlanetScope (Dove) Imagery
