#1 Improv, #2 Morse, #3 Starship Lander, #4 Depth, #5 AeroBusiness, article When Satellites Go Quiet, People Notice, on X This is what @elonmusk is talking about imho; $SPCX is way better off than the proposed ANT or SCAM (OpenAI 😂) stock symbols. Owning physical compute + plan to get to orbit. @AnthropicAI and @OpenAI will run out of customers and $ at a reasonable rate of interest - not tomorrow, but it's coming. CC: @MorganLBrennan @CNBC timber is coming if vertical stack not in place and/or taxpayer backstop.

NDVI Scope for iPhone

Coming soon to the App Store. Outline a field on your iPhone, pick a clear Sentinel-2 satellite date, and see plant health and problem patches worked out on the phone.

The NDVI Scope app icon, a patchwork of fields coloured green for healthy plants and red for problem patches, beside the iPhone screen where you tap a field's corners on a clear Sentinel-2 satellite image.

NDVI Scope for iPhone is coming soon to the App Store. For now it is in TestFlight, Apple's beta testing service, and cannot be downloaded from the store yet. The browser and desktop version has its own write-up.

Find a farm by address or by typing coordinates, then draw a box around the field. The app searches the free public archive of Sentinel-2 satellite images, with no key or sign-up, and works out the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), a standard measure of how green and healthy plants are. Patches that are doing worse than the rest of the field are marked as problem areas.

It is not published. These are personal builds, and what is here is the write-up rather than the repository.
