puce titre h2 A unique know-how in imagery processing

Specialised in satellite imagery products for over 20 years, PlanetObserver has developed a unique expertise in satellite imagery processing. Production is fully integrated and conducted by our in-house technical team for all our products and services.

In order to provide high-quality value-added data, we apply our unique experience and skills at every step of the satellite imagery process :

  • Production of satellite imagery mosaics.
  • Natural colour processing.
  • Seamless and homogeneous processing.

puce titre h2 Main production steps for imagery products

Our range of satellite imagery products is primarly processed from Landsat 5 TM et Landsat 7 ETM+ source data. You'll find here more details on imagery data processing.

From raw data to final satellite imagery products

Etape 1 Etape 2 Etape 3
1st step : Raw data assembling after initial geometric correction 2nd step : Colour correction and true natural colour processing 3rd step : Final seamless and homogeneous processing

All our products are processed in natural colours by using exclusively the three visible bands of Landsat satellites (bands 3-2-1). Our data are georeferenced and orthorectified.

Our production in brief

  • 8600 is the number of raw scenes necessary to the 15m global dataset production.
  • 5TB is the total 15m global imagery dataset size.
