API Request Limits
When you place an order, you’ll receive enough credits to acquire images of your entire area of interest at the frequency you selected (e.g., daily updates over a specified period). If you require additional access – such as for reacquiring images – you can purchase extra credits to support your needs. See our credit pricing in the billing section.
Minimum Credit Charge
- Minimum Credit Unit:
The smallest unit of a credit is 0.01. - Minimum Charge:
For any API requests covering areas smaller than 0.1 km², a minimum charge of 0.01 credits applies per request.
API Request Limits
-
Requests per Second:
By default, each API key allows for 4 concurrent requests per second. If your project requires higher throughput, contact us to discuss increasing your limit. -
Credit Limit per Request:
Each individual request has a single credit limit of 2000 credits. If your area of interest or request exceeds this, consider splitting your request into smaller sections or contact support for assistance.
For projects with higher data demands or complex processing needs, we offer tailored solutions to accommodate larger request volumes. Please reach out to our team for customized API configurations or questions regarding API usage limits.
Credit Expiration
All credits – including those provided with your initial order and any additional credits purchased – expire one year after they have been added to your account. Please ensure you utilize your credits within this timeframe to maximize their value.
Credits can remain valid even after your selected image storage duration has ended. This means you can use any remaining credits to reacquire images from another order within the one-year validity period.
