Tanager
Planet Tanager constellation will soon deliver next-generation hyperspectral data, beginning with the recently launched Tanager-1. Designed in collaboration with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Tanager captures data across more than 400 spectral bands from the visible to shortwave infrared range. Its 30–35m spatial resolution and 18 km swath width enable high-precision insights for essential applications, from environmental monitoring to resource management and biodiversity assessment.
