Public projects from space, every month
A monthly satellite picture of each public project, with the weather.
What it does
Every month: the latest clear satellite picture of each public project site, with the weather there and a status note from xMap AI, emailed to the project office and pinned on a map.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, take your table, get satellite pictures, get the 3-day weather forecast, write a summary of each with xMap AI, then email the list to you and show them on a map.
Why it is useful
Project offices oversee many sites. Pictures from above show progress on all of them every month.

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 120 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
