How does the field imagery in Bridge compare to other satellite imagery out there?


  • Our imagery has fewer gaps, because it’s a combination of imagery from the government along with private satellite images that they have to pay for.
  • Our imagery is better screened for clouds, so we can salvage a good image taken on a mostly-cloudy day and keep from showing a bad image taken on a mostly-clear day.
  • Our imagery is better calibrated, so the Crop Health values that you get represent the "top of canopy" instead of the "top of atmosphere".
