Seeking satellite image API

Question

I’m seeking a satellite image API which I can call with lat/long, date, resolution, among other things, and pull a satellite image to analyze.

What are some go-to APIs for this purpose? I’m willing to pay as I anticipate heavy usage.

Answer 1

ESRI has many public satellite images consumable using their ArcGIS API for JS .

Here's an example : https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/sample-code/widgets-basemapgallery/index.html

As long as you need to display layers from public services and add some graphics on it (Polygons points etc) , you can use it for free . Otherwise if you are planning to create your own maps , then you should pay or find other GIS opensource solutions .
