Add Landsat scene loading functions to core #46

Open kkmcgg opened 3 years ago

kkmcgg commented 3 years ago

Some functions exist in the previous tutorial 2 from this course wherein we grab a large list of landsat scene metadata and links where they can be downloaded from Amazon Web Services. We parse this file and perform simple look ups to find landsat scenes for a given location. These functions should be integrated intro our core library and tested. Examples of the code being used (or tested) can be seen here. There is also an example python notebook which illustrates the results.

More information on the original source of landsat data used in these tools: https://registry.opendata.aws/landsat-8/ https://docs.opendata.aws/landsat-pds/readme.html

**note this source of landast data is being depreciated! We may need to investigate new means of obtaining the data the direct replacement for the above service seems to operate quite differently https://www.usgs.gov/core-science-systems/nli/landsat/landsat-commercial-cloud-data-access

I have tested the original Landsat download script and it does still work. Unfortunately it seems that the data source will be shut down by the summer of 2021.

I have uploaded a notebook for downloading landsat scenes using landsatxplore, it might help.
