Worldview Snapshots: How do I get an image of the same area every day?

There are two ways in which you can achieve this.

Method 1
  1. Set up you initial area-of-interest, desired base and overlay layers; resolution and file format within the Worldview Snapshots form interface.
  2. Click on "Preview".
  3. Locate the "Share Image" link, click on the link to copy link to the clipboard. You may check the "Shorten Link" button to get a shorter link for easier sharing. You may also check "Always show today" or "Always show yesterday" buttons to share imagery that changes daily relative to the UTC date. "Always show today" will display what imagery the satellite has collected so far but might not return an image if the satellite has not yet passed over that area/imagery has not yet been processed; "Always show yesterday" may be useful if you are in a different time zone and you would like to always get an image.
  4. Every time you come back to the link, you will get today's or yesterday's imagery!
Method 2
  1. Set up you initial area-of-interest, desired base and overlay layers; resolution and file format within the Worldview Snapshots form interface.
  2. Bookmark the browser URL.
  3. Every time you come back to the URL, you will get to preview and download today's imagery!
