How can I view cloudy satellite images of a field?

Cloudy days are marked with a ☁️ icon because biomass layers can't be applied to them. As a result, Variable N-Rate Application maps can't be created from these images. However, you can still view cloudy images to check cloud cover manually. If the image is indeed cloud-free, it can be used to create application maps.

 

You can view cloudy satellite images and check whether they're actually cloudy or not as follows:

 

  1. Web app: Click the date picker at the bottom left. / Mobile app: Click Show cloudy days below the map.
  2. Select the desired cloudy date (☁️ icon marks cloudy images).
  3. The biomass map for the selected cloudy satellite image is displayed.Cloudy satellite image.png
  4. Web app: To view the actual satellite image (instead of the biomass map), select Field view from the map layer tile at the bottom right. / Mobile app: To view the actual satellite image (instead of the biomass map), select Field view from the dropdown below the map.
  5. Check whether the image is actually cloudy or clear. If it's free of cloud cover, it can be used to create application maps.Clear satellite image.png
