Practice activity¶

If you have installed Python locally, launch JupyterLab by running:

conda activate sds

and

jupyter lab

Remote sensing in Python¶

a) Download the Landsat data from here.
b) Read each band (i.e. src1 = rasterio.open(files[0])) and scale the values between 0 and 1 by dividing by the maximum value of a 16-bit integer (i.e. band1 = src1.read(1) / 65536).
c) Compute all eight of the spectral indices on this website. For each index, make a plot (with a colorbar and a different colormap for each one) to show your answers.

Note

Note that the images we are using are from Landsat 8.

Important

Save your notebook to your local course folder and submit assignment (in .pdf format) to Canvas by the deadline.
