How to generate in QGIS the images that revolutionized environmental mapping

Abstract

The PlanetScope nanosatellite constellation has revolutionized the way we observe the Earth, by scanning each pole of the Planet every 90 minutes. In this post, you will learn about the technological feat achieved by Planet , when it launched its first nanosatellites, in 2016, which today are part of a constellation that captures all the dynamics of the Earth, daily. Since 2020, Brazil has been able to rely on this revolutionary technology for environmental monitoring , by having access to the PlanetScope system. It is a constellation formed by more than 200 nanosatellites, generating high spatial resolution images, with daily coverage capacity, of the entire national territory.
