taco
Read and write TACO datasets in Python.
pip install taco-eo
python examples/minimal.py
Published wheels include the native TACO reader. Building from the source distribution requires a C++23 compiler, CMake, Ninja, pkg-config, libcurl 7.83 or newer, and OpenSSL 3 or newer.
import taco
samples = taco.read("dataset.zip")
parts = taco.read(["part-0.zip", "part-1.zip"])
dataset = taco.open_dataset("dataset.zip")
targets = dataset.read(files="target.tif")
train = dataset.sql("SELECT * FROM dataset WHERE \"ml:split\" = 'train'")
export() writes a smaller dataset with the same contract. samples is a
PyArrow-compatible table, normally selected from the dataset SQL relation.
Keyword arguments replace fields of the collection, such
as id or description; the rest is inherited. For a remote source, metadata
is cached and only the payload files belonging to the selected samples are
downloaded. Pass overwrite=True to replace an existing TACO output.
source = "https://data.source.coop/major-tom/core-dem/"
dataset = taco.open_dataset(source)
rows = dataset.sql('SELECT * FROM dataset ORDER BY "taco:sample_index" LIMIT 10')
taco.export(
source,
"core-dem-sample.zip",
samples=rows,
id="core-dem-sample",
description="Ten samples from Core-DEM",
)
Remote reads and exports show download progress in interactive terminals.
Writers show their build progress when opened with progress=True.
Examples
Every example is self-contained, uses synthetic data, and writes its output in the current directory.
Spatial and temporal metadata use separate profiles: Spatial for regular
spatial grids, ISpatial for irregular footprints, and Temporal for time
alone. STAC combines regular spatial + temporal metadata; ISTAC combines
irregular spatial + temporal metadata.
