Planet Adds to its Planetary Variable Product Suite with Automated Field Boundary Detection
Field Boundaries automatically trace the boundaries of agricultural parcels for a specified area and time of interest. To do this, Planet’s proprietary algorithm estimates a parcel’s extent and perimeter from a time series of satellite images. This dataset can be generated globally dating back to 2018.
This dataset allows for high-level analytics at scale for a variety of use cases, including food security, sustainable agricultural monitoring, commodities trading, and supply chain monitoring. Field Boundaries can provide the spatial context necessary to understand planted acres for different crop types and growth throughout the season, enabling accurate yield estimation on a regional and global level. This can help support benchmarking, the tracking of farming activities, and compliance with regulations, leading to improved agricultural products, services, practices, and policies.
“Field Boundaries will help deliver critical infrastructure for agricultural solutions in one place, simplifying both purchasing processes and technical integrations for Planet’s customers," said
