Setup with Console
Console is where you can purchase Map Credits, access data, create organizations, and track usage.
If you're a customer interested in accessing the world's freshest map data products, Console is the place to go. This one-stop shop offers all the core features needed to access Bee Maps products.
Create Account
Get started by logging into Console using a Google account. You can also create/link a Phantom or Breeze account, but Google is the preferred login method for Console.

Buy Map Credits
Map Credits are needed to access Bee Maps data products, including the Map Image API, Map Features API and Scout. Map Credits can only be purchased after logging in. Once logged in, you can purchase Map Credits through Console > Organization.
Each Map Credit costs $0.02. This means that $1 buys 50 Map Credits, which is roughly equivalent to one kilometer worth of imagery from a single week, or 1 kilometer of a single class of Map Features for a week. There is a minimum purchase of $10, equivalent to 500 Map Credits, with each transaction.
Generate API Key
To use Bee Maps APIs, an API key must be generated and active. To generate an API key:
Navigate to Console > Developers > API Key
Click

Active API keys will will be listed under Active API Keys

For Developers
In your API call, add the base64 encoded username:APIKey
Basic dXNlcm5hbWU6MDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDAwMDA=
After generating an API key and purchasing Map Credits, you now have access to the Map Image API, Map Features API, and Scout.
