Unlock potential with Planet’s earth-imaging solutions
Planet is a global leader in high-frequency Earth observations. Building, and operating the world’s largest constellation of earth-imaging satellites. Capturing daily imagery of Earth, Planet makes global changes visible, accessible, and actionable through an API and online platform. NGIS, Planet’s Australian implementation partner, translates this data into operational value by leading technical delivery, user enablement, and organisational support.
Earth Observation Data Products
NGIS provides access to Planet’s comprehensive suite of satellite imagery and analytics products, designed to meet diverse monitoring and intelligence requirements. From daily global coverage and high-resolution site analysis to hyperspectral sensing and automated feature detection, these products deliver the data quality and temporal frequency needed for informed decision-making across government, defence, environmental, and commercial applications.
Daily Earth Observation at Scale
Monitor expansive areas and track evolving conditions across entire regions. With a constellation of hundreds of Dove® satellites capturing imagery almost daily, you’ll gain the temporal insights needed to identify patterns, spot anomalies, and respond to changes as they happen.
Detailed Site Intelligence
Access high-resolution data when precision matters most. SkySat® satellites deliver sharp imagery that reveals critical details, helping you spot emerging issues, reduce uncertainty, and act decisively when stakes are high.
Scientific Environmental Monitoring
Transform satellite observations into quantifiable metrics. Planet’s data, combined with the broader Earth observation network, delivers scientifically validated measurements of key environmental indicators including soil moisture, biomass levels, and surface temperatures.
Automated Feature Recognition
Apply machine learning across Planet’s extensive archive to automatically detect and classify objects and features within monitoring data at a global scale. Focus your efforts where they matter most by accessing the latest intelligence without manually reviewing countless images.
Hyperspectral Analysis Capabilities
Observe environmental factors beyond visible light. Tanager®, Planet’s hyperspectral satellite, measures across 400+ spectral bands to enable methane and CO2 detection, vegetation species mapping, water quality assessment, and other advanced applications.
Sectors
Make better decisions with better information. Understand what is happening on the ground in the areas you care about. Power your decision making with Planet’s unique, global dataset.
Government
Access timely Earth observation data that supports evidence-based policy development, program delivery, and informed decision-making across federal, state, and local government agencies.
Sustainability
Meeting environmental commitments and regulatory requirements demands accurate measurement and transparent reporting of change. Planet’s data provides the spatial and temporal resolution needed to observe, quantify, and report environmental shifts as they unfold.
Energy and Infrastructure
Enhance operational oversight of critical assets, track competitor activities, and identify potential risks early to prevent disruptions and reduce financial exposure across energy networks and infrastructure projects.
Agriculture
High-frequency satellite imagery and detailed spatial data enable farmers and agricultural managers to optimise production, improve profitability, and implement sustainable land management practices with confidence.
How Organisations Inform Decisions

Protecting giant kelp forests
Planet’s high resolution imagery is supporting The Nature Conservancy’s Giant Kelp restoration project in Tasmania, where 95% of underwater forests have been lost due to climate change over the past four to five decades. NGIS, funded by Google Australia through its $1 billion Digital Future Initiative, is using Planet satellite imagery combined with machine learning through Google Cloud Platform and partner expertise, to analyse and map canopy changes.
