Examples

Example Python notebooks can be found in the "examples" directory. Further, some examples can be found in the "Usage" section below.

Usage

Import the library using import themis_imager_readfile

Warning: On Windows, be sure to put any read calls into a main() method. This is because we utilize the multiprocessing library and the method of forking processes in Windows requires it. Note that if you're using Jupyter or other IPython-based interfaces, this is not required.

Read a single file

>>> import themis_imager_readfile
>>> filename = "path/to/data/2020/01/01/atha_themis02/ut06/20200101_0600_atha_themis02_full.pgm.gz"
>>> img, meta, problematic_files = themis_imager_readfile.read(filename)

Read multiple files

>>> import themis_imager_readfile, glob
>>> file_list = glob.glob("path/to/files/2020/01/01/atha_themis02/ut06/*full.pgm*")
>>> img, meta, problematic_files = themis_imager_readfile.read(file_list)

Read using multiple worker processes

>>> import themis_imager_readfile, glob
>>> file_list = glob.glob("path/to/files/2020/01/01/atha_themis02/ut06/*full.pgm*")
>>> img, meta, problematic_files = themis_imager_readfile.read(file_list, workers=4)
