Examples¶

SDK examples¶

The following examples were created specifically to show you how to use the SDK and CLI:

data_download_multiple_assets.py - this Python script orders, activates, and downloads two assets
orders_create_and_download_multiple_orders.py - this Python script creates two orders, each with unique Area of Interest (AoI), preventing a combined download
Planet API Python Client - a Python notebook to introduce Planet’s Data API and the planet module
Orders API & Planet SDK - a Python notebook shows how to get started with Planet SDK and the Orders API.
Analysis Ready Data Tutorial Part 1: Introduction and Best Practices - this Python notebook uses the SDK to prepare Analysis Ready Data.
Analysis Ready Data Tutorial Part 2 - the first use case in this Python notebook leverages the SDK’s order_request feature to prepare an NDVI time stack and the second use case visualizes the NDVI imagery.

Other examples¶

Besides the SDK-specific examples, above, you can find many examples that show how to access Planet data in the documentation and Planet School at the Planet Developers Center.Also, more working examples are on the Planet Labs Python notebooks on GitHub.

Planet APIs¶

This pre-release SDK has implemented interfaces for several Planet APIs. Check out the documentation for the underlying API:

Build Status¶

Planet Software Development Kit (SDK) for Python main branch

Version 1 of this SDK¶

Version 1 of this SDK is significantly different (see the documentation). Version 2 is not backward compatible. Make sure to create a separate virtual environment if you need to work with both versions. For more information on how to do this, see the Virtual Environments and the Planet SDK for Python.
