Initial Example#


Short description

This notebook introduces the SpaceSense library. In this notebook, you will search and download a Sentinel-2 image.


0 - Install Spacesense Client Library and dependencies#

Please follow the installation process and use the virtual environment in this notebook.

1 - Import spacesense object(s) and other dependencies#

[1]:
from spacesense import Client
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
import json

2 - Configure the API Key by setting the SS_API_KEY environment variable#

[2]:
import os
if "SS_API_KEY" not in os.environ:
    from getpass import getpass
    api_key = getpass('Enter your api key : ')
    os.environ["SS_API_KEY"] = api_key

3 - Define the area of interest (AOI), time of interest (TOI), output options#

AOIs can be read in directly as geojson files using the json library, or can be defined directly in the code.

You can download the Mont Blanc geojson here

[3]:
# Define the area of interest (AOI)
with open("../resources/aois/mont_blanc.geojson", mode="r") as file:
    aoi = json.load(file)

# Define the time range of interest (TOI)
start_date = "2022-07-13"
end_date = "2022-07-14"

# Get an instance of the SpaceSense Client object
client = Client(id="s2_intro_example")

# Enable to save data in local files
client.enable_local_output()

4 - Search S2#

[4]:
# Call the S2 search function, passing the AOI, and TOI
res_S2 = client.s2_search(aoi=aoi, start_date=start_date, end_date=end_date)
# Visualize the Pandas dataframe with the results
res_S2.dataframe

Select just one S2 result#

[5]:
# Filter the S2 search result to only those that have a 100% swath coverage - Only one result in this case
res_S2.dataframe = res_S2.dataframe[res_S2.dataframe.swath_coverage_percentage == 100]
# Visualize the Pandas dataframe with the results
res_S2.dataframe

5 - Select only certain bands of S2#

[6]:
# Select only the Blue, Green, and Red bands of S2
# Selecting individual bands fuses ONLY those bands into
# the fused result, in the specified order.
res_S2.output_bands = ["B02", "B03", "B04"]

6 - Obtain S2 image (Fuse)#

The result of the fusion is an Xarray Dataset. This dataset is simply a 3-dimensional array, with the dimensions of time, y (latitude), and x (longitude).

The data we are interested in, the reflectance values of the selected bands, is found in the Data Variables. This data can be selected, enhanced, and manipulated using any Xarray Dataset methods.

[7]:
# Call the core fusion function, passing our filtered S2 result
# This function obtains the result we selected in step 4, with the band selection
# specified in step 5
fusion = client.fuse([res_S2])
# Visualize the Pandas dataframe with the results
