Live satellite check · Alberta research pilot

Get an initial reading for a new candidate area.

Enter an approximate Alberta location. Bee GPS checks recent satellite imagery and reports when a usable view was found and how green the surrounding vegetation appeared. This first reading is not a flowering or dispatch decision.

The check looks at a five-kilometre area. Please use an approximate point, not an exact bee yard coordinate. We round the point to about one-kilometre precision before sending it to Microsoft Planetary Computer. No account is required and Bee GPS does not save your entry. How this test handles locations.

How to read this result

A recent green-vegetation reading is one clue for deciding where to inspect. It does not tell us what is flowering, whether nectar is available, whether a road is passable, whether the grower has released colonies or whether a site is suitable or permitted.

This is an evaluation service using preview satellite infrastructure. It may return “no reliable reading” or be temporarily unavailable. Do not use it as the sole basis for moving colonies or dispatching a crew.
