A planetary-scale platform for Earth science data & analysis
Powered by Google's cloud infrastructure
Meet Earth Engine
Google Earth Engine combines a multi-petabyte catalog of satellite imagery and geospatial datasets with planetary-scale analysis capabilities. Scientists, researchers, and developers use Earth Engine to detect changes, map trends, and quantify differences on the Earth's surface. Earth Engine is now available for commercial use, and remains free for academic and research use.
Satellite Embedding Dataset
Access the power of deep learning with Google’s Satellite Embedding Dataset, powered by the AlphaEarth Foundations AI model. We've packed a year of multi-source data into every 10m pixel, making it analysis-ready. This unlocks faster, more powerful, and accessible planetary analysis for everyone.
Go to DatasetReady-to-use datasets
The public data archive includes more than thirty years of historical imagery and scientific datasets, updated and expanded daily. It contains over eighty petabytes of geospatial data instantly available for analysis.
explore datasetsSimple, yet powerful API
The Earth Engine API is available in Python and JavaScript, making it easy to harness the power of Google’s cloud for your own geospatial analysis.
explore the APIGoogle Earth Engine has made it possible for the first time in history to rapidly and accurately process vast amounts of satellite imagery, identifying where and when tree cover change has occurred at high resolution. Global Forest Watch would not exist without it. For those who care about the future of the planet Google Earth Engine is a great blessing!
