Access data and metadata in a GeoTIFF file through an API or a BMI
Project description
bmi-geotiff
Access data (and metadata) from a GeoTIFF file through an API or a BMI.
The bmi-geotiff library accepts a filepath or an URL to a GeoTIFF file. Data are loaded into an xarray DataArray using the experimental open_rasterio method. The API is wrapped with a Basic Model Interface (BMI), which provides a standard set of functions for coupling with data or models that also expose a BMI. More information on the BMI can found in its documentation.
Installation
Install the latest stable release of bmi-geotiff with pip
:
pip install bmi-geotiff
or with conda
:
conda install -c conda-forge bmi-geotiff
Alternately, the bmi-geotiff library can be built and installed from source. The library uses several other open source libraries, so a convenient way of building and installing it is within a conda environment. After cloning or downloading the bmi-geotiff repository, change into the repository directory and set up a conda environment with the included environment file:
conda env create --file=environment.yml
Then build and install bmi-geotiff from source with
make install
Examples
A brief example of using the bmi-geotiff API is given in the following steps. The example is derived from a similar example in the xarray documentation.
Start a Python session and import the GeoTiff
class:
>>> from bmi_geotiff import GeoTiff
For convenience, let's use a test image from the rasterio project:
>>> url = "https://github.com/mapbox/rasterio/raw/master/tests/data/RGB.byte.tif"
Make an instance of GeoTiff
with this URL:
>>> g = GeoTiff(url)
This step might take a few moments as the data are pulled from GitHub.
The data have been loaded into an xarray DataArray
, which can be accessed through the da
property:
>>> print(g.da)
<xarray.DataArray (band: 3, y: 718, x: 791)>
[1703814 values with dtype=uint8]

Display the image with the xarray.plot.imshow method.

Contributing
Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
You can contribute in many ways:
Types of Contributions
Report Bugs
Report bugs at https://github.com/csdms/bmi-geotiff/issues.
If you are reporting a bug, please include:
- Your operating system name and version.
- Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting.
- Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
Fix Bugs
Look through the GitHub issues for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Implement Features
Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement" and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
Write Documentation
bmi-geotiff could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.
Submit Feedback
The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/csdms/bmi-geotiff/issues.
If you are proposing a feature:
- Explain in detail how it would work.
- Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
- Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions are welcome :)
Get Started!
Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up bmi-geotiff for local development.
-
Fork the bmi-geotiff repo on GitHub.
-
Clone your fork locally:
$ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/bmi-geotiff.git
-
Install your local copy into a conda environment. A conda enviroment file is supplied at the root of the repository. Assuming you have conda installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:
$ cd bmi-geotiff $ conda env create --file=environment.yml $ conda activate geotiff $ make install
-
Create a branch for local development:
$ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
Now you can make your changes locally.
-
When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests:
$ make lint $ make test
Both flake8 and pytest are included in the environment.
-
Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes." $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
-
Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.
Pull Request Guidelines
Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
- The pull request should include tests.
- If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
- The pull request need only work with Python >= 3.8.
Deploying
A reminder for the maintainers on how to deploy. To make a new release, you will need to have zest.releaser installed, which can be installed with pip,
$ pip install zest.releaser[recommended]
Make sure all your changes are committed (including an entry in CHANGES.md). Then run,
$ fullrelease
This will create a new tag and alert the bmi-geotiff feedstock on conda-forge that there is a new release.
