Usable Data Masks (UDM2) are available for 4-band PlanetScope imagery back to August 2018 globally, and specific agricultural regions back to January 2018. A small percentage of PlanetScope 4-band imagery after August 2018 do not have the UDM2 asset. This is because of rectification and/or image processing failures. As of November 29, 2023 all new PlanetScope and SkySat imagery is processed by UDM2.1. Any imagery acquired prior to November 29, 2023 were processed by UDM2.0. You can read more in this article: All About UDM2.1
Data API allows you to download the assets separately, and we do not charge for downloading of UDM2 or UDM2.1 assets only.

hey,
I am just looking for udm2 bands but for the years 2017-2021. I am aware for planetscope the bands are dated back to August 2018, so for the previous year and months I plan to use Skysat. Can I donwnload these udm2 bands for free of charge?
I am new to using PlanetAPI, I cannot seem to find codes on GitHub that allows me to download time series data with all these bands as a binary classified file. Could assistamce be provided?
