Planet Labs PBC

Planet Labs PBC uses space to help life on Earth by imaging the world daily and making global change visible, accessible, and actionable. The company has designed, built, launched, and operated hundreds of satellites, collecting a data set of over 3,000 images on average for every point on Earth's landmass. This creates a historical archive for analytics, machine learning, and insights. Complementing its foundational data offerings, Planet Labs PBC provides advanced data processing capabilities to produce "AI-ready" data sets and offer AI-enabled solutions, either directly or through partnerships. The company also offers satellite services arrangements to large government and enterprise customers, including designing and manufacturing customer-owned satellites. These arrangements include critical related services such as mission systems engineering, launch procurement, ground station infrastructure, satellite operations, and maintenance. Additionally, Planet Labs PBC provides dedicated image tasking capacity on company-owned or customer-owned satellites. The company's satellite imagery, data, and analytics reveal insights regarding phenomena like deforestation, agriculture, global security, maritime domain awareness, climate change, biodiversity, and supply chains worldwide. Its daily stream of proprietary data and machine learning analytics, delivered over its platform, helps customers embed Earth data and change detection capabilities into their workflows. The historical archive of global, daily imagery data enables back-testing of predictive analytics, relevant for time-series forecasting in machine learning. Planet Labs PBC also provides end-to-end spacecraft manufacturing and satellite services, integrating design, manufacturing, and mission operations to reduce time from concept to orbit for high-performance spacecraft and on-orbit mission services.
