    I don't say this lightly: This may be the best combination of style and substance I have ever seen.

      Seriously though. I actually enjoyed using this. Good job to OP even if it's AI.

      This is almost certainly Claude but I agree with both style and substance on this post.

    This is not only a very cool idea, but also fantastic execution! Great work and very neat!

    I have seen a lot of sites with satellites’ overviews… I work in geospatial.

    This site is really good one as you can see exact image taken by a satellite.

    Well done.

    This is great for planning backpacking trips. I have been using Copernicus but you have a lot more and it's much easier to access. Very nice!

    This is very cool, and a bit creepy too, but mostly cool

    Really liked the UX, even on a small phone screen it was easy to use. I enjoyed the big typing cursor, it was a unique surprise (almost 100% of text form inputs have either a very small vertical line cursor, or nothing at all - the big cursor feels refreshing)

    oooh. so fun.

    I imagine, that there is someone with access to this sort of thing, with live imagery from any satellite they click on, in 8k.

      yeah def some generals who use stuff that mogs this

  • JeppyG 2 hours ago ago

    Very cool. Was this inspired by the latest season of cyberpunk? In case you and Capri need to escape onto a satellite. XD

    Can you get high res images, or are they typically not made public?

    Very cool tool

    • a585gupt an hour ago ago

      for most places in the world ~10m/px is the best public image res, some lower (ex. rural areas) and some higher, am working on sourcing higher res for the areas where it's available tho

    That looks really nice. I especially like the view showing the satellite flying overhead and the line marking the scanned area.

    • mxuribe 2 hours ago ago

      Yeah, that was so cool; like something right out of a call sci-fi movie or show!

    Great user interface - animations are such a nice touch.

    Love the fly overs, and the interface. Just beautiful.

    Um, wow. Amazing UI.

    This photo of the SF Bay this morning is a great representation of the fog that settles in over the area:
