coloc_sat

coloc_sat is a Python package for co-locating satellite data products. It allows you to co-locate data from different satellite sources based on provided paths and common variable names. This README provides an installation guide and instructions for usage. This package also allows co-location listings. Input satellites / missions that can be treated by this tool are the following : WindSat / SMOS / SMAP / SAR (L1/L2) / ERA5 / HY2 SAR satellites are RCM, RadarSat-2 and Sentinel1.

Installation

Make sure you have Python 3.9 or higher installed.

Using pip

pip install coloc_sat

Using conda

conda install -c conda-forge coloc_sat

Usage

Configuration

Before using coloc_sat, you need to configure the paths to your satellite data products and define common variable names. Follow the steps below:

1. Create a directory named coloc_sat in your home directory.
2. Inside the coloc_sat directory, create a file named localconfig.yml.

In localconfig.yml, fill in the paths to your satellite products following the schema below:

paths:
  SMOS:
    - '/path/to/SMOS/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/*%Y%m%d*.nc'
    - '/path2/to/SMOS//%Y/%(dayOfYear)/*%Y%m%d*.nc'
  HY2:
    - '/path/to/hy2/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/*%Y%m%d*.nc'
  ERA5:
    - '/path/to/era5/%Y/%m/era_5-copernicus__%Y%m%d.nc'
  RS2:
    L1:
      - '/path/to/rs2/L1/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/RS2*%Y%m%d*'
    L2:
      - '/path/to/rs2/L2/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/RS2_OK*/RS2_*%Y%m%d*/post_processing/nclight_L2M/rs2*owi*%Y%m%d*0003*_ll_gd.nc'
  S1:
    L1:
      - '/path/to/s1/L1/*/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/S1*%Y%m%d*SAFE'
    L2:
      - '/path/to/s1/L2/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/S1*%Y%m%d*/post_processing/nclight_L2M/s1*owi*%Y%m%d*000003*_ll_gd.nc'
      - '/path2/to/s1/L2/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/S1*%Y%m%d*/post_processing/nclight_L2M/s1*owi*%Y%m%d*0003*_ll_gd.nc'
  RCM:
    L1:
      - '/path/to/rcm/L1/*/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/RCM*%Y%m%d*'
    L2: []
  WS:
    - '/path/to/windsat/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/wsat_%Y%m%d*.gz'
  SMAP:
    - '/path/to/smap/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/RSS_smap_*.nc'
    - '/path2/to/smap/%Y/%(dayOfYear)/RSS_smap_*.nc'
common_var_names:
  wind_speed: wind_speed
  wind_direction: wind_direction_ecmwf
  wind_from_direction: wind_from_direction
  longitude: lon
  latitude: lat
  time: time

Replace the paths with the actual paths to your satellite data products. Use the placeholders %Y, %m, %d, and %(dayOfYear) to automatically parse dates from the paths.

Co-locating Data

Once you've configured the paths and common variable names, you can use coloc_sat to co-locate the data. Import the package and start co-locating your data based on your needs.

Now, import the package:

import coloc_sat

Then, define important variables for the co-location:

delta_time=60
destination_folder = '/tmp'
listing = True
product_generation = True
product1 = '/path/to/s1/l2/s1a-ew-owi-cm-20181009t142906-20181009t143110-000003-02A122_ll_gd.nc'

Example code for co-locating a satellite product with a mission:

ds_name = 'SMOS'
# Call the generation tool
generator = coloc_sat.GenerateColoc(product1_id=product1, ds_name=ds_namedelta_time=delta_time, product_generation=product_generation, 
                            listing=listing, destination_folder=destination_folder)
# save the results (listing and / or co-location products)
generator.save_results()

NOTE : It is also possible to use this co-location generator with the console. Here are examples.

a) This first example shows how to generate a coloc between 2 specified products:

Coloc_2_products --product1_id /path/to/rs2/L2/rs2--owi-cm-20141004t210600-20141004t210715-00003-BDBE0_ll_gd.nc --product2_id path/to/s1/L2/s1a-iw-owi-cm-20141004t211657-20141004t211829-000003-002FF5_ll_gd.nc --listing --product_generation

b) This second example shows how to generate all possible coloc between a product and a mission (all products from this mission):

Coloc_between_product_and_mission --product1_id /path/to/rs2/L2/rs2--owi-cm-20141004t210600-20141004t210715-00003-BDBE0_ll_gd.nc --mission_name S1 --listing --product_generation
