FAQ: BJ3A and the EOSDA LandViewer platform
How much does a BJ3A scene cost?
Accessing archived BJ3A data starts at $12 per square kilometer, with a minimum area of interest (AOI) of 25 sq km. If you need a new capture (tasking), it is priced from $21 per square kilometer, with a minimum AOI of 100 sq km.
What are the most common use cases for BJ3A images?
B3JA imagery is most commonly used for land and resource management, agricultural surveys, environmental monitoring, and urban planning
How does the B3JA tasking option work?
You have two options for requesting a fresh image. One is to fill out the form on our website and wait for our sales team to reach out to you shortly after to assist you. The other one is logging in to the EOSDA LandViewer platform, navigating to the High-resolution imagery section, and clicking the New Image option. There, you can select the resolution, delivery speed, and AOI for your tasking order.
What levels of data processing are available?
All BJ3A images are delivered georeferenced for seamless integration into GIS software like QGIS or ArcGIS. Should your project require advanced processing, such as orthorectification, please contact our support team; we can accommodate these requests in most instances.
Can I set a recurring or long-term monitoring for my AOI with BJ3A?
Yes, this service is available. Please reach out to our sales team or complete the inquiry form on our website. Our specialists will contact you shortly after to discuss the details of a customized monitoring schedule.
How can I ensure my images are cloud-free?
EOSDA LandViewer features a built-in cloud coverage filter that lets you set your maximum acceptable cloudiness limit. Any B3JA that exceeds this threshold is automatically hidden, ensuring you only see the clearest and most suitable results.
What should I do if I cannot find a suitable BJ3A scene for my AOI?
EOSDA LandViewer provides access to a diverse catalog of over 15 high-resolution satellites beyond BJ3A, including other modern satellites of the family like B3JB. We recommend using our platform filters to select your desired resolution and explore alternative scenes from other top-tier providers.
What level of clarity can I anticipate from these images?
Utilizing the resolution provided by B3JA, you can achieve very high-precision identification. This data allows you to clearly distinguish boundary fencing, narrow alleys, parked vehicles, and curbs.
