Planet Explorer updates:

New ✨

• The Imagery Type filter is now grouped by resolution. The group checkboxes can be used to select/deselect all

• MGRS support when searching. Users can now use the Military Grid Reference System with 10km, 1km, and 100m precisions.

Improvements 🙌🏻

• The instrument filter is no longer applied by default, to avoid excluding items without instrument in the metadata.

Bug Fixes 🐛

• Fixed an issue when following a deep link and the user was not logged in, the search would not load properly.

The SkySat cloud_cover field is now computed as the sum of cloud_percent and heavy_haze_percent so all cloud values are consistent. Note that cloud_cover is still in the range 0-1 (a ratio), while cloud_percent and heavy_haze_percent are percentages in the range 0 to 100. The properties of the archive have not been changed at this time, but may be changed in the future to also reflect this change.
