Found Doves and RapidEye imagery were better at differentiating between sea ice, icebergs, and mélange Planet Cryosphere
Spatially, the data were found to be largely complementary to similar observing systems (e.g., COSMIC/COSMIC-2), filling gaps between the orbits of the baseline radio occultation observing system le Roux, J. Spire Atmospheric Chemistry
The imagery suffers from poor cloud screening over ice and snow, lacks rigorous satellite intercalibration (Dove & SkySat) Herzfeld. U. Maxar, Planet Glaciers/Ice Sheets
Stereo DEM accuracy and quality from SkySat video scaled with spatial resolution and was extremely useful Planet Cryosphere
Despite better spatial and temporal resolution, the lack of a SWIR band is a significant limitation for cryospheric studies Tucker, C. Planet Glaciers/Ice Sheets
