Extension summary

This handy extension will ride along with you while you surf Wikipedia pages, and whenever you come across a geographical coordinate it will ping the Planet Labs API to get a count of the images we have of that location, and add a link in-line that will take you to a Planet Scenes search for that location.

Please note actually viewing the imagery available from Planet Labs requires a Planet Labs account. This extension unfortunately will not be enough on its own to provide access to satellite imagery.
