I am attempting to prepare PlanetScope imagery for a time-series analysis. I have read a bit about transforming imagery into Analysis-Ready Data (ARD), so I am aware of the general steps in the process. This is the high-level workflow I have come up with so far:

masking --> normalization --> compositing --> co-registration

 

However, I am not sure how to implement these steps. Does anyone have any resources that describe how to prepare imagery for time-series analysis in as much detail as possible?

 

Some other details:

  • I am using 8-band imagery from SuperDove sensors
  • I have downloaded imagery as analytic surface reflectance at this point (but am open to other formats)
  • I am using Python to acquire and process this imagery.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi ​@kristofj,

There is an 8 course series on Planet University for using Planet Data in Python.

Thank you for the tip, ely. I will take a peek through these.

Do you know if there is any content that addresses pre-processing imagery in preparation for time-series analysis or, more specifically, scene-level normalization?
