The EASIER Data Initiative's Python Client

View source on GitHub

Features

• Simple CID Data Retrieval
• CID CSV To Dataframe Object
• Querying EASIER STAC API by Bounding Box
  • Single Band Retrieval
  • Multi Band Retrieval

Installation

The client can be installed through pip

$ pip install ipfs-stac

Language Support

The client currently supports Python versions 3+

Usage

Create a client object

from ipfs_stac import client

# Create a new client object
easier = client.web3(local_gateway="", stac="")

Fetch a CID from IPFS

# Simple hello world example
data = easier.getFromCID("QmZ4tDuvesekSs4qM5ZBKpXiZGun7S2CYtEZRB3DYXkjGx")
print(data)

"""
hello worlds
"""

Get CID CSV Data to Pandas Dataframe

df = easier.getCSVDataframeFromCID("bafybeifw6kcodgxnamtuvhkxgaf4ep2rwscjae3gnzxb3zj5c6zyea2nri")
print(f"Data frame length: {len(df)}")

"""
Data frame length: 3510
"""

Query STAC API By Bounding Box

easier = client.web3(local_gateway="", stac="<YOUR STAC ENDPOINT GOES HERE>")

"""
The searchSTACByBox by method takes 3 arguments
1. Coordinates for the bounding box
2. Name of the STAC collection to query
3. Index of the item you want to retrieve
"""
item = easier.searchSTACByBox([-76.964657, 38.978967, -76.928008, 39.002783], ["<STAC COLLECTION GOES HERE>"], 0)
band = easier.getBandFromItem(item, 'BAND NAME GOES HERE') # Returns band object

# Optionally, you can fetch multiple bands by the getBandsFromItem Method
bands = easier.getBandsFromItem(item, ["blue", "red"]) # Returns array of bands

The band object

# This snippet extends the previous under "Query STAC API By Bounding Box"

# The band object, when printed, will return the CID
print(band) # QmNddx9BvBsQMXgwp6a83D2wiLrmovgCpRKVYKSJoWNNbx

# You can fetch the band bytes through the fetch method
data = band.fetch()
