Install

mamba env create
conda activate bowser-env
pip install .

Note: if viewing files on S3, please install s5cmd:

mamba install s5cmd

Quickstart for dolphin

• bowser setup-dolphin is preconfigured to make a JSON file pointing to the outputs inside work_directory of dolphin
• bowser run starts the web server on localhost:

$ bowser setup-dolphin work/

$ bowser run
INFO:     Uvicorn running on http://127.0.0.1:8000 (Press CTRL+C to quit)
INFO:     Started parent process [99855]
...

Click on the http://127.0.0.1:8000 link to open the map.

Note for running over ssh: you will need to run an ssh command creating a tunnel from your local computer to wherever the bowser server is. For example, if you machine is myserver, you would run in a local terminal

ssh -N -L 8000:localhost:8000 myserver

after starting the web server.

Quickstart for DISP-S1 NetCDFs

Until GDAL puts work into the NetCDF driver, reading remote HDF5/NetCDF files has very poor support. Additionally, there is no standard overview format as there is with GeoTIFFs, so titiler is very unhappy.

We can get around this to some degree by creating VRTs and making external overviews pointing at these VRTs.

1. Download the NetCDFs (hopefully on some server which has fast access to the S3 bucket).
2. Run bowser prepare-disp-s1 to create VRT files pointing in the .nc files, one per dataset we wish to browse.
3. Run bowser setup-disp-s1 to make a JSON file containing all the file metadata, so the browser knows where to look.
4. bowser run

In detail:

1. Download I use s5cmd for faster copying, but the aws CLI tool works too:

mkdir my_disp_files; cd my_disp-files
s5cmd --numworkers 4 cp 's3://opera-bucket/OPERA_L3_DISP-S1_IW_F11115*/OPERA_L3_DISP-S1_IW_F11115*.nc' .

2. Extract VRTS

bowser prepare-disp-s1 -o vrts *.nc

3. Create bowser_rasters.json metadata

bowser setup-disp-s1 vrts

4. Run

bowser run

If this is on a server instead of your laptop, you'll need (on your laptop)

ssh -N -L 8000:localhost:8000 myserver

for whatever port pops up after bowser run

CLI Usage

$ bowser --help
Usage: bowser [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

  CLI for bowser.

Options:
  --help  Show this message and exit.

Commands:
  addo           Add compressed GDAL overviews to files.
  run            Run the web server.
  set-data       Specify what raster data to use.
  setup-dolphin  Set up output data configuration for a dolphin workflow.

To manually specify a raster/set of rasters, use the interactive bowser set-data

Developer Setup

npm is used to manage javascript dependencies.

npm install will install all dependencies.

After making HTML or CSS changes, run npm run build to build the project. Currently the dist/ HTML and CSS files are checked in to git for easier deployment for non-javascript users.
