Planet partner?Impact Observatory?has developed AI-powered geospatial monitoring tools that help decision-makers understand risks and anticipate changes at unprecedented speed and scale. “Impact Observatory works with the U.S. government and with state and local governments, to help them understand the threats and risks of climate change and natural disasters,” said Steve Brumby, CEO of Impact Observatory. “Planet data provides a unique capability to understand how the world is changing and allow people to anticipate the worst effects and plan to intervene in time to help save lives.” Watch to hear more from Steve Brumby:

The partnership between Planet and Impact Observatory accelerates awareness and reduces response times for emergency situations and climate risks. Impact Observatory leverages our PlanetScope satellite data and AI to provide the U.S. government, non-profits, and companies with time-sensitive insights for natural disaster management, evacuation plans, and response efforts.

This week's for Hispanic Heritage Month, we're celebrating Planet's Flávia de Souza Mendes, PhD, Program Manager of Forest and Land Use. Dr. Flávia De Souza Mendes brings her local knowledge from Latin America and expertise to the forefront of environmental protection. In her role, she strategically supports Planet's efforts in developing new solutions for forest monitoring, sustainable land use, and supply chain awareness to public and private markets. As a leader in remote sensing and forestry, she not only pioneers sustainable solutions for global land and forest use but also champions inclusion and diversity. "Through my work with initiatives in diversity and inclusion, I look to empower underrepresented voices, building a more inclusive geospatial community," Flávia de Souza Mendes, PhD said.

Thrilled to announce that we have signed a contract with American Crystal Sugar Company through our partner SatAgro to support precision agriculture! Leveraging our PlanetScope data, American Crystal Sugar is informing their advanced sugar beet monitoring work in the northern United States. ?? ?? ??? “Covering sugar beet production in real-time across the Red River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota is a challenge, and this new ability to monitor harvest progress and crop size is critical to managing our assets and resources,” said Joe Hastings, General Agronomist at American Crystal Sugar. “It also gives us greater confidence in crop yield and harvest progress predictions.” Read more: https://go.planet.com/acs

?? We're thrilled to be joining Planet's new program, Project Centinela! ??? This program will provide access to insightful data from Planet's Earth imaging satellites to the world’s leading biodiversity scientists and conservation advocates, including our teams in the US, Tanzania, and Uganda. According to JGI's VP of Conservation Science Lilian Pintea, quoted in Planet's press release: “Through this partnership, JGI will support implementation of the Uganda National Chimpanzee Conservation Strategy and Tanzania Chimpanzee Conservation Action Plan. [These data and products will enable] our local communities and government partners to better monitor and manage their land use plans and protected areas...” ?? Shared data will not only include high-resolution, high-frequency satellite imagery, but also analytics and Planet's Planetary Variables, which measure the changing conditions of the Earth's surface, including soil water content, crop growth, temperature, forest carbon, and farm boundaries. ?? This is the next step in our ongoing collaboration with Planet to unlock the power of satellite data for the benefit of people, chimpanzees, other wildlife, and their shared environment. ??
