Hi @CooperNederhood - check out the "Retrieve Tiles" documentation for details on how to pull different tile formats.
Gonna close here, but please reopen if ^ doesn't answer your question.
Thanks for the link, that was good information to know. However, when I changed my command to:
rs download https://api.mapbox.com/v4/mapbox.satellite/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x.png?access_token=[API_KEY] output_folder_name
I still was pulling .webp files. However, when I added the --ext option and ran the below command, I receive png files. I seem to be getting the output I wanted, but just wanted to point this out
rs download --ext png https://api.mapbox.com/v4/mapbox.satellite/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x.png?access_token=[API_KEY] output_folder_name
The .webp
URl results in Mapbox sending a webp image file over the wire.
The --ext
extension flag results in us saving the image file in the specified format.
We provide the ext flag so we not tied to tile endpoint formats.
Hello. I am not sure if that changed during last year, but the current version of Mapbox Raster API Documentation says that "Tiles that include mapbox.satellite are always delivered as JPEGs, even if the URL specifies PNG". That can be proven by using gdalinfo example_raster.png
that will return:
Driver: JPEG/JPEG JFIF
Files: example_raster.png
Size is 512, 512
Image Structure Metadata:
COMPRESSION=JPEG
INTERLEAVE=PIXEL
SOURCE_COLOR_SPACE=YCbCr
Corner Coordinates:
Upper Left ( 0.0, 0.0)
Lower Left ( 0.0, 512.0)
Upper Right ( 512.0, 0.0)
Lower Right ( 512.0, 512.0)
Center ( 256.0, 256.0)
Band 1 Block=512x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Red
Overviews: 256x256, 128x128
Image Structure Metadata:
COMPRESSION=JPEG
Band 2 Block=512x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Green
Overviews: 256x256, 128x128
Image Structure Metadata:
COMPRESSION=JPEG
Band 3 Block=512x1 Type=Byte, ColorInterp=Blue
Overviews: 256x256, 128x128
Image Structure Metadata:
COMPRESSION=JPEG
Moreover, as we can see this image is not geo-referenced (any info about CRS). The same is shown by rasterio crs
which returns None
. Could anyone please confirm that Mapbox Raster API doesn't return geo-referenced images anymore?
Slippy Map tiles are geo-referenced by means of their tile ids, i.e. z,x,y in /z/x/y.png. Please reads e.g. the OSM wiki docs on that.
Re. the Mapbox API I don't know if they have changed anything but in the past it was possible to download webp image tiles.
Good luck.

Hello, I have been working through your diary example on Tanzania but I want to pull from Mapbox instead as that is closer to what I'll ultimately be doing. I ran the command:
rs download https://api.mapbox.com/v4/mapbox.satellite/{z}/{x}/{y}@2x.webp?access_token=[API_KEY] output_folder_name
But I get back .webp files rather than .png files. I am less experienced with Mapbox/OSM and I'm coming from a deep learning background so I'd prefer to work directly with png (or jpeg) files so I can try some different segmentation models outside of what is available in Robosat (and potentially try to build out some features in the process). Can I change my rs download line in some way to get png/jpeg?
Thanks for building such a great product!
