IO MONITOR
Impervious Surfaces
Design stormwater management strategies, mitigate urban heat, and assess flood risks
Near Real-Time
Available with the most up-to-date imagery available.
Unlock insights
10m or 3m resolution maps available for your area of interest.
Simple pricing
Standard pricing up to 15,000km² with tiered pricing available for larger areas.
From land use to impervious surfaces maps
Created from two main inputs: our LULC predictions and spectral data from satellite imagery for this same period. The result is a binary map with the same resolution as our source data, which is 10m/pixel for Sentinel-2 imagery, and 3m/pixel for PlanetScope Imagery.
