cross_cal_resourcesat

Introduction

This package applies a cross calibrates LISS III and AWiFS with the help of a reference image like Landsat 8 and Sentinel 2.

Takes two inputs:

• inpf_liss = path to folder LISS III or AWiFS bands
• inpf_ref = path to folder containing reference image bands. Could be Landsat 8 or Sentinel 2.

Final output folder:

• inpf_liss\Reflectance\Calibration

Four temporary images are also generated which are automatically deleted after the execution. These are two composite images, one resampled image, and one clipped image

Package information

A python package to cross calibrate ResourceSat 2 sensors like LISS III, AWiFS or LISS IV.

• Github repo: https://github.com/akhi9661/cross_cal_resourcesat
• PypI: https://pypi.org/project/cross-cal-resourcesat/
• Free software: MIT license
• Documentation: https://akhi9661.github.io/cross_cal_resourcesat

Note: At the moment, if reference_sensor = 'Landsat 8', path to reflectance images will have to provided in inpf_ref.

How to use

• Clone the repository in the desired folder.

git clone https://github.com/akhi9661/cross_cal_resourcesat.git

In case this fails, download the zip file and extract it in a folder.

• Install the required dependencies.

pip install -r requirements.txt

If it throws up an error, create a new virtual environment and install the dependencies. Installation of GDAL and rasterio is complex and generally fails in the base environment or an already existing environment. Creating a new virtual environment generally resolves this.
