πŸ›° Step-by-Step Guide

How Your Name From Orbit
comes together.

Type a name and watch it spelled from real satellite imagery of Earth. Rivers, deltas, lakes and mountain ranges that naturally form your letters, matched from NASA / USGS Landsat and ESA Sentinel-2 archives.

πŸ›°

Real satellite imagery

Every letter is genuine Earth-observation imagery from NASA / USGS Landsat and ESA Copernicus Sentinel-2. Nothing is generated or invented.

πŸ“

Every letter is a place

Each tile carries its own place name and coordinates: a river delta in Alaska, fields in Kazakhstan, an ice field in Iceland.




Shuffle the Earth

Letters have multiple variants. Shuffle the whole name, or one letter at a time, until the landscapes feel right.

The Four Steps
01 Name

Type the name.

A first name, a surname, a nickname or a meaningful word. The customiser searches the letter library and matches each character to a piece of Earth that happens to form it.

Letters A to Z

Up to 12 letters per print. Each one loads as its own satellite-imagery tile in the live preview on the left.

Instant preview

The print builds as you type. What you see, framed and captioned, is what gets printed.

02 Shuffle

Shuffle the letters.

Every letter exists in multiple places on Earth. The shuffle controls swap each tile for another real landscape that forms the same character, so the same name can look completely different.

Each tile is a real place.

This letter A is the Yukon Delta in Alaska, photographed from orbit, with its latitude and longitude printed beneath. Shuffle it and you might land on a different continent entirely.

Keep shuffling a single letter until its colours sit well next to its neighbours. Greens, ochres and deep blues all live in the library.

Shuffle all

One tap re-rolls every letter at once. Useful for a quick feel of how varied the library is.

Per-letter chips

A chip appears for each letter of your name. Tap one to swap just that tile and leave the rest alone.

03 Personalise

Write the words, set the mood.

An optional caption sits beneath the letters, each tile can carry its own location annotation, and four background colours change the whole character of the print.

Caption field and location and coordinates toggle in the Your Name From Orbit customiser

Caption

Up to 60 characters beneath the name. A date, a dedication, or something like "Written in the Earth".

Location & coordinates

A toggle prints each letter's place name and lat/lon under its tile, like a small annotation strip. On for the geo-detail, off for a cleaner look.

Background

Midnight, Cream, Espresso or Bone. The light backgrounds read editorial and airy; the dark ones make the imagery glow like slides on a lightbox.

Same Name, Two Moods
04 Finish

Framed print, print only or canvas. Four frame colours, five sizes, and a live total that updates as you tap. The frame preview renders on the print to the left before you commit.
