GeoRetina AI uses two user-facing agent modes: Core and Super. Choose the mode from the chat composer before sending a request.
Core Mode
Core mode is optimized for fast risk, exposure, and conservation outputs with map layers and metrics. Use it when you want to create or inspect a layer quickly.
Good Core requests:
- Generate a land-cover map for an ROI.
- Find public assets or exposed features in a region.
- Create a vegetation index layer.
- Run a first-pass flood exposure screen.
- Produce a chart or summary statistic.
Super Mode
Super mode is designed for more advanced, in-depth analysis. It can create report assets, dynamic visualizations, and follow-up-ready outputs that can be reused in later prompts. When useful, Super can automatically combine raster and vector analyses so the result explains both the mapped condition and the affected assets, boundaries, or features.
Good Super requests:
- Create a report after a completed analysis.
- Interpret multiple risk, exposure, or conservation layers together.
- Prepare a briefing or decision summary.
- Ask in-depth follow-up questions after the first results are returned.
- Merge raster and vector outputs to summarize affected assets or priority areas.
- Combine map outputs with knowledge base documents.
Choosing the Mode
| Need | Recommended mode | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Fast layer or metric | Core | Lower-friction output for exploratory work. |
| Report, narrative, or briefing | Super | Creates deeper report assets, dynamic visuals, and richer synthesis. |
| Follow-up questions about analysis outputs | Super | Supports in-depth follow-up analyses after the first result is returned. |
| Raster and vector synthesis | Super | Can combine mapped raster outputs with assets, boundaries, or feature layers. |
| First-pass screening | Core, then Super if needed | Start fast, then deepen once the right layer exists. |
Credit usage
Super mode uses 3x more credits than Core mode and may be plan-gated. Use it when deeper synthesis, dynamic visualizations, or in-depth follow-up analysis are worth the additional credit cost. See Credits & Usage for more guidance.
Working with Reports and Follow-ups
Super outputs can be opened in the Insights Viewer and reused as assets. After the first result is returned, ask follow-ups such as:
- "Create a report on these findings."
- "Summarize this report for a city planning audience."
- "Intersect the flood-depth layer with exposed OSM features and summarize the highest-risk assets."
- "Compare this vegetation stress raster with the uploaded parcels and identify priority field visits."
- "Use the report and the vegetation stress layer to create field priorities."
- "Export the report to Google Drive."
