PlanetScope Asset & Item Names

The following table shows the legacy item types and their associated asset types and bundles and maps to the new PSScene item type and its corresponding assets and bundles. 

Note: PSScene3Band and PSScene4Band item types and assets were deprecated in January 2023. These item types will not be available for new customers provisioned after March 1, 2022. We recommend all customers who are interested in medium-resolution imagery use the PSScene item type.

  • The "Before" column on the left shows the item type and asset type that you may have used in the past. For example, previously, you may have used the _PSScene3band_ item type to get a _visual_ asset.
  • The “PSScene Asset Types” column provides the comparable types for individual asset requests. For example, to get a visual asset now, use _PSScene_ and _ortho_visual_. 
  • The "PSScene Product Bundle" column lists the related item types and product bundles available now. For example, to request a visual product bundle, use the _PSScene_ item type and the _visual_ product bundle.

Looking at the table, you'll see that regardless of the asset or product bundle you want, you only have to use one item type: _PSScene_.
