Common BigEarthNet Tools

A personal collection of common tools to interact with the BigEarthNet dataset.

This library provides a collection of high-level tools to better work with the BigEarthNet dataset.

bigearthnet_common tries to:

1. Collect the most relevant constants into a single place to reduce the time spent looking for these, like:
   • The 19 or 43 class nomenclature strings
   • URL
   • Band statistics (mean/variance) as integer and float
   • Channel names
   • etc.
2. Provide common metadata related functions
   • Safe JSON parser for S1/S2
   • Get the original split
   • Get a list of snowy/cloudy patches
   • Convert the old labels to thew new label nomenclature
   • Generate multi-hot encoded label views

Installation

The package is available via PyPI and can be installed with:

• pip install bigearthnet_common

The package has Python-only dependencies and should cause no issues in more complex Conda environments with various binaries.

Review constants

To quickly search for BigEarthNet constants of interest, call:

• ben_constants_prompt or
• python -m bigearthnet_common.constants

Contributing

Contributions are always welcome!
