Iteru: Continuous Monitoring of GERD Reservoir using Google Earth Engine API and Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery

This GitHub project serves as a Python package developed for my M.Sc. thesis in Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing. The primary objective of this project is to provide a robust solution for continuously monitoring the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) reservoir in Ethiopia. By leveraging the Google Earth Engine API and Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery, this package offers valuable insights into the reservoir's water storage dynamics and changes over time.

Installation

To use iteru, you must first sign up for a Google Earth Engine account.

To install iteru, run this command in your terminal:

  pip install iteru

Key Features

• Access and retrieve Sentinel-1 SAR imagery using the Google Earth Engine API.
• Preprocess SAR imagery by applying calibration and speckle filtering techniques.
• Extract relevant information and parameters related to the GERD reservoir.
• Analyze and visualize the reservoir's variations and water storage dynamics.
• Implement continuous monitoring mechanisms for timely updates.
• Integrate scheduled tasks or event-based triggers for data retrieval and processing.

Credits

This package was created with Cookiecutter and the giswqs/pypackage project template.
