Can I use the Spectral Analysis tool on monthly and quarterly basemaps?

Q: I want to use the Spectral Analysis tool on the Monthly or Quarterly Basemaps but I'm getting an error.

A: The Spectral Analysis tool in Planet Explorer is only available for Surface Reflectance Basemaps. Surface Reflectance Basemaps are Select Basemaps which means they are specifically created for a customer. Access to those Basemaps needs to be purchased and it not included in a standard Global Basemaps plan.
