PLANET SHARES INFORMATION ON TANAGER HYPERSPECTRAL CONSTELLATION PLANET SHARES INFORMATION ON TANAGER HYPERSPECTRAL CONSTELLATION - Planet released additional information about the hyperspectral constellation the Earth-observation company is developing through the Carbon Mapper public-private partnership. San Francisco-based Planet remains on schedule to launch the first two hyperspectral satellites in 2023 to gather data in 400 spectral bands with a resolution of 30 meters per pixel. While data to pinpoint methane and carbon dioxide sources will be shared publicly through the Carbon Mapper Coalition, Planet also will combine hyperspectral data with electro-optical imagery obtained by its Dove, Pelican and SkySat satellite fleets...   More
