Consider using gee-atmcorr-S2 if you are atmospherically correcting a small number of images (e.g. 10s). It uses Py6S directly and has less set up time.
This repo is for atmospherically correcting large numbers (e.g. 100s) of Sentinel2 and Landsat images. Although automated, it has a longer set up time as it will download then interpolate look up tables. However, it should run considerably faster. Time series have the following properties:
- atmospherically corrected
- cloud-masked
- saved to excel
- pretty plots
This approach might also be more suitable for onboard processing (e.g. drones, nanosats) as the computational heavy lifting can be done in advanced.
Install Docker then build the Dockerfile
docker build /path/to/Dockerfile -t atmcorr-timeseries
Run the Docker container.
docker run -i -t -p 8888:8888 atmcorr-timeseries
and authenticate the Earth Engine API.
earthengine authenticate
grab the source code
git clone https://github.com/samsammurphy/ee-atmcorr-timeseries
and run the Jupyter Notebook:
cd ee-atmcorr-timeseries/jupyter_notebooks
jupyter-notebook ee-atmcorr-timeseries.ipynb --ip='*' --port=8888 --allow-root
This code is optimized to run atmospheric correction of large image collections. It trades setup-time (i.e. ~30 mins) for run time. Setup is only performed once and is fully automated. This solves the problem of running radiative transfer code for each image which would take ~2 secs/scene, 500 scenes would therefore take over 16 mins (everytime).
It does this using the 6S emulator which is based on n-dimensional interpolated lookup tables (iLUTs). These iLUTs are automatically downloaded and constructed locally.
While integration work is in-progress we will be publishing to both tellus internal s3 pypi and artifactory
- to publish to tellus internal s3 pypi, make sure s3 creds point to the correct account and run ./scripts/publish.sh
- circleci will publish to artifactory and bases the version on semantic-release commit formatting
