Hey @SarahAlidoost, since you already had a look at this episode, would you mind checking how do you see it now as first after the background episodes (new episode 5)?

fnattino commented 2 years ago

Thanks @SarahAlidoost - and good point about the solution to the first episode. I'll add some details there!

Solution with screenshots added - how do you see it @SarahAlidoost ?

Hi @rbavery , this episode is also ready if/when you have time to review it!

Since this episode will become the first of the lesson, I have simplified it a bit, removing things that will be introduced later like cropping a raster.

The most important change is in the last exercise, which used to make use of Landsat data from the Earth Search STAC endpoint. I have noticed that the datasets are no longer available, so I switched STAC endpoint to the NASA CMR one and modified the exercise to ask for Landsat metadata from the HLS collection. I think introducing this second STAC endpoint might actually be a good thing, since this will be used also in the stackstac/odc-stac episode and it will illustrate how public catalogs can also include protected data.

Thanks a lot @rbavery! I have waited to change the episode file name to facilitate the review (I am afraid that detailed changes will not be highlighted here on GH if I rename the file)- will take care of that just before merging!

Great @rbavery, and thanks for pointing out the issue of the notebook. I will remove it for now, if we see the need for it we could then add at once notebooks for all episodes at once.
