Researchers delving into climate change, biodiversity loss and other topics through work funded by U.S. federal civilian agencies and the National Science Foundation will have access to Planet Earth-observation data through September 2022, under a NASA contract announced Sept. 14.
The announcement follows NASA’s decision in July to offer wider access to Planet data, which had previously been limited to NASA-funded work. Now, some 300,000 researchers, contractors and grantees, who receive funding from federal civilian agencies and NSF, will have access to the data, Planet said in a Sept. 14 news release.
