How can I view cloudy satellite images of a field?

Cloudy satellite imagery is hidden by default in the timeline because the biomass layers can't be applied to them, and therefore Variable N-Rate Application maps can't be created with such imagery.

Tip: For some crops, where the last cloud-free satellite image is more than five days old, a calculation option is displayed below the map to extrapolate a current cloud-free satellite image. Click Calculate to start the extrapolation. Read more about growth estimation here. [add to all new VRA articles for countries with growth estimation feature]

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

1. Web: Click Show cloudy days in the timeline below the map on the field page. / Mobile: Click on the cloud icon below the map on the field page.
2. All satellite images will be displayed in the timeline regardless of cloud cover, indicating cloudy images with a cloud symbol.
   • Web: Click Hide cloudy days to hide the cloudy images again. / Mobile: Click on the cloud icon to hide the cloudy images again.
3. Select a satellite image with the desired date to view it. A biomass map generated from a cloudy satellite image will look like the image below.
4. Web: Click on the map layer tile in the bottom right corner of the map and select Field view to view the satellite image taken on the selected date. / Mobile: Click on the map layer dropdown below the map and select Field view to view the satellite image taken on the selected date.
5. Check if the image is indeed cloudy or if it's actually cloud-free. The image must be clear of cloud cover and look similar to the image below. Such images can now be used to create Variable N-Rate Application maps, even though they've been marked as cloudy.
