Editorial take
Our qualitative read on the source — tone, framing and trust posture.
Very high authority, but not beginner-friendly. Best as a premium knowledge/workflow area.
Integration stance
Build, buy or defer. What shape the product integration would take, and why.
Start with catalog guides and selected workflows, then add API-powered lookups later.
Ethics and compliance
What to handle carefully, and what must not ship without sign-off.
Avoid overclaiming interpretation of satellite imagery without expert review.
Respect data access and token requirements.
