Summary<\/strong>: The space industry is undergoing a rapid transformation, one that allows us to see our world like never before. Planet Labs is a revolutionary satellite image provider, capturing the Earth\u2019s landmass at a near-daily pace. Not only are these images being collected daily but they consist of a 3.5-meter spatial resolution and contain eight channels of multispectral information. This unique dataset offers a variety of opportunities to explore Earth like never before. Come join us for this studio<\/strong><\/em> event to learn more about Planet Labs, satellite imagery, Planet platforms and a demonstration of the Planet Explorer platform! Austin is joining remotely and Corbin will join us in-person to answer all your questions. Feel free to bring your own laptop to follow along or perhaps you have questions about using Planet data for your own work. What would you study with daily imagery?<\/p>\n About the speakers<\/strong>: Austin Stone<\/strong> is Customer Success Manager for Education and Research at Planet Labs<\/a>.\u00a0In this role he gets the opportunity to engage and work with researchers around the world who are using Planet imagery. He has a BS in Geography and is currently obtaining his MSc in Geography from the University of Georgia, primarily focusing in remote sensing of landscape agricultural and statistical scaling techniques for biophysical parameters. Austin also has experience working with NASA, USDA, and USAID on a variety of remote sensing projects that link satellite imagery and in-situ\/social observations in various application areas.<\/p>\n
