Satellite Image Time Series Analysis for Earth Observation Data Cubes
Note
The main sits
classification workflow has the following steps:
sits_cube
: selects a ARD image collection from a cloud provider.sits_cube_copy
: copies an ARD image collection from a cloud provider to a local directory for faster processing.sits_regularize
: create a regular data cube from an ARD image collection.sits_apply
: create new indices by combining bands of a regular data cube (optional).sits_get_data
: extract time series from a regular data cube based on user-provided labelled samples.sits_train
: train a machine learning model based on image time series.sits_classify
: classify a data cube using a machine learning model and obtain a probability cube.sits_smooth
: post-process a probability cube using a spatial smoother to remove outliers and increase spatial consistency.sits_label_classification
: produce a classified map by selecting the label with the highest probability from a smoothed cube.
Purpose
The SITS package provides a set of tools for analysis, visualization and classification of satellite image time series. It includes methods for filtering, clustering, classification, and post-processing.
