The Planet ArcGIS Add-In V2.1 is an ArcGIS Pro Add-In that can be installed and added to your ArcGIS Pro software. In December 2019, Planet released its Planet ArcGIS Add-In V1, which supported search, streaming and download capabilities for Planet imagery & Basemaps. In January 2021, Planet released the Planet ArcGIS Add-In V2. And in July 2021, Planet updated the V2 Add-in with a 2.1 patch.
