Skywatch Finops
FinOps view of EarthCache spend. EarthCache cost is driven almost entirely by imagery ordered, metered per square kilometre and priced by resolution tier and by ordering mode (archive vs. tasking), subject to per-tier purchase minimums. Pipelines let teams pre-set spend controls (budget_per_km2 and max_cost) so recurring monitoring stays within budget. EarthCache Enterprise converts this into an annual license with prepaid data credits and organization-wide usage analytics. There is no per-request API fee; the unit of cost is area of imagery delivered.
