High resolution satellite images provided as Opendata by Satellogic. The dataset provides Top-of-Atmosphere (TOA) reflectance values across four spectral bands (Red, Green, Blue, Near-Infrared) at a Ground Sample Distance (GSD) of 1 meter, accompanied by comprehensive metadata such as off-nadir angles, sun elevation, and other pertinent details. Users should note that due to an artifact in region delineation, a small number of regions present overlaps.
