Release notes

We now provide you with an asset details page for every single asset in UP42 storage that has a valid STAC collection. Click on your asset to see the asset geometries of all scenes on a map, get information on product configuration, type of data and modality, or manage custom titles and tags given to your assets.

This makes it easier for you to validate the geometries delivered for tasking and archive orders. You can also find an adapted SDK/ API code snippet to access and download assets, and integrate them into your pipeline.

Check out our new storage features.

You can now place tasking orders containing multiple geometries through the console. When you upload a geometry file that contains multiple features, the individual geometries will be detected, split, and marked as separate items. When you submit the order, each geometry file will be created as a separate order in our system. The order configuration will be cloned for all orders, saving you the hassle of placing multiple orders for different geometries.

Place your tasking order through the console.

You can now access open data directly on the UP42 platform. Sentinel-2 is an Earth observation mission from the Copernicus Programme by the European Space Agency. Access to Sentinel data is free. Its imaging satellites carry wide swath multispectral sensors with 13 spectral bands, acquiring optical imagery at a spatial resolution of 10 m to 60 m over land and coastal waters. The mission provides global coverage and a 5-day revisit rate.

Place your order through our console or via our API.

Before we head into the well-deserved Easter break, we have some exciting news to share. We now have aerial data from Hexagon on the UP42 platform. The HxGN Content Program offers a large library of RGB imagery with 15 cm and 30 cm GSD in GeoTIFF across North America and Europe.

You can find coverage for all three products in our technical documentation or see our marketplace for more information.

The geospatial industry has exploded over the past few years and with it, the number of image providers and data volume. SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog (STAC) is a specification designed to establish a standard in exposing geospatial data, simplifying data management for providers, developers, and users. It allows searching across multiple providers for geospatial assets which share a common structure and set of metadata. Today, UP42 is further strengthening its commitment to the STAC standard by integrating STAC in the UP42 storage and ensuring a common metadata format across providers.

We now provide a STAC API endpoint for asset searches in the UP42 storage. UP42 will extract the metadata for your geospatial assets from existing user storage and make them searchable through our STAC asset service. You can search by AOI, cloud cover, acquisition date, order ID and much more.
