Thanks for the insights. While on this topic, some what, is there a satellite imagery service available that can give images of a location at a requested/variable time of the year? I wanted to see what a particular location looked liked during winter but could only find clearer photos taken during spring/fall months. I’d love if bing/google earth had a timeline/seasonal type slider.


Look at ESA's Sentinel 2. It has a 5-6 day revisit time and the data will always be free. It's 10m resolution which may or may not be good enough.

Google Earth Engine is designed exaclty for this (and has other satellites too).


Possibly something that urthecast.com could do.


Planet.com will do this for $$
