Snow-RS (Remote Sensing) utilities

Python package with tools for processing snow property information from remote sensing sources.

Setup conda environment

Use the supplied environment.yml file to set up a Python environment with conda to run or develop utilities.

conda env create -f environment.yml

Installation for execution

git clone git@github.com:UofU-Cryosphere/snow-rs.git
cd snow-rs
python -m pip install .

Installation for execution & development

git clone git@github.com:UofU-Cryosphere/snow-rs.git
cd snow-rs
python -m pip install -e .

Technical note

Uses Dask to parallelize extraction on daily basis.

Current Tools

MODIS

Contains a converter utility to extract MODIS gap-filled values for a given variable. The source files are expected to as unprojected Matlab files.

Sample call:

variable_from_modis --source-dir /data/MODIS_files \ 
                    --output-dir /your/output/dir \
                    --year 2018 \
                    ---year-format water \
                    --t-srs EPSG:4326 \
                    --variable albedo_observed_muZ

Data required

The package data dir includes the WesternUS.tif template file used to create the projected GeoTiff results. It is installed automatically with the package.
