Introduction
Planet was founded with a mission to paint a picture of the Earth every day, making change visible, accessible and actionable.Planet's data is transforming the way companies and governments use satellite imagery data, providing insights based on the rate of change of the planet on a daily basis. This differentiated dataset supports decision-making in a wide range of industries, including agriculture, forestry, mapping and government. Our constellation of more than 200 Earth-imaging satellites, the largest in history, images the entire landmass of the planet every day. https://www.planet.com/
The most important feature of the Planet satellite constellation is that it provides users with fast and updated commercial satellite imagery. The constellation provides a wide range of Earth imagery with a resolution of 4 meters, which is unmatched in terms of breadth of coverage and degree of updating; the most important highlight is the direct acquisition of calibrated orthophotos.

Why am I only showing edu education email certifications here?
Purchased, trust the seller, have bought a few and honestly have been using them except for 2 of my world accounts that flipped. Can't blame the seller for the cartwheel, after all, it's not controllable.
It's bad luck. I just passed the code.
Said there is a chance to restore 5T, so long or 1t, if the long can be used or can be. Much better than tossing it yourself.
