Access to Planet's data helps TGI researchers explore issues surrounding national security and global food security, as well as advance core geospatial science, computation, and artificial intelligence initiatives. Additionally, Planet data contributes to TGI's mission to train the next generation of the geospatial workforce.

“Planet is proud to continue serving the Taylor Geospatial Institute with its powerful dataset, enabling industry leaders to accelerate critical research into a wide variety of research areas from climate change to human-environment impacts,” said Will Marshall, CEO and co-founder of Planet. “Through this partnership, these world-class institutions can leverage cutting-edge technologies and Earth observation analytics to help advance our understanding of our planet.”

“Planet was TGI's first commercial data partner and their data has paved the way to fueling the work of our researchers across the consortium, from research on arctic tundra ecosystem dynamics to remote sensing studies of soybean crop quality and yield,” said Nadine Alameh, Ph.D., executive director of TGI. “I'm excited about extending this partnership as it's critical for our recently launched strategic initiatives on global food security and GeoAI; and our commitment to accelerating the commercialization of mature research results in partnership with industry.”
