Where do the letter images come from?

Image references are sourced from NASA Landsat outreach and related public Earth observation sources listed on each detail page.

Can I click coordinates and open the location on Google Maps?

Can I download and share my generated name image?

Yes. After entering a name, you can download the generated image and share it through a link or QR code.

Can I use generated images for commercial projects?
