STAC is a well-known and acknowledged spatiotemporal metadata standard within the community. There are many applications with open-source data; however, there are few adoptions by premium satellite imagery providers.

The ongoing adoption challenges with multiple data providers taught many takeaways that we would like to share with the community.
