Quindío coffee axis (PlanetScope, post-event) — 11 August 2026
PlanetScope PSB.SD imagery acquired 11 August 2026 at 16:04 UTC over the Quindío coffee axis on the western flank of the Cordillera Central — Armenia, Calarcá, Circasia, Montenegro, Quimbaya and La Tebaida — roughly 70 km east-south-east of the epicentre. Two consecutive scenes from a single strip (satellite 252e, strip 8956803) form one continuous north-east to south-west swath running from the valley floor up to the Los Nevados massif. Acquisition is near-nadir (2.8 degrees off-nadir) with a high 71 degree sun elevation, so building lean and shadowing are minimal. 89% of this footprint was already imaged by the 10 August PlanetScope pass, so the collection pairs with planetscope-2026-08-10 for same-sensor 24-hour change detection at 3 m, as well as against the near-nadir Q2 2026 basemap. Cloud is low but not absent: 9% and 7% cloud with a further 4% and 1% light haze, leaving 83% and 89% of the two scenes clear. Almost all of it sits along the eastern, higher-elevation edge of the swath over the cordillera flank, so the populated valley floor is effectively clear — check the UDM2 before radiometric work or automated change detection. Visual and surface-reflectance (analytic_sr + UDM2) products support landslide and damage mapping across the steep, wet coffee-growing slopes. 2 scenes; each Item carries the available visual, analytic_sr, udm2 assets.
