Geographic Information Systems Asked by Martin Muriithi on January 31, 2021
I am exporting a single image and a collection of Landsat raw images from Google Earth Engine using Python, but all my images are in black and white. Should they be like that? Isn’t there a way of getting coloured Landsat images. I am very new.
Below is my code:
# Import libraries.
import ee
import webbrowser
# Trigger the authentication flow.
# ee.Authenticate()
# Initialize the library.
ee.Initialize()
# Access a collection
collection = 'LANDSAT/LC08/C01/T1' #Landsat 8 Collection
#Landsat_composite in Nithi area
area_nithi = list([(37.288, 0.172), (38.333, 0.172), (38.333, -0.568), (37.288, -0.568), (37.288, 0.172)])
area_nithi = ee.Geometry.Polygon(area_nithi)
time_range_nithi = ['2017-01-01', '2017-12-31']
collection_nithi = ('LANDSAT/LC08/C01/T1')
print(type(area_nithi))
#Methods from climada.util.earth_engine module
def obtain_image_landsat_composite(collection, time_range, area):
""" Selection of Landsat cloud-free composites in the Earth Engine library

Parameters:
collection (): name of the collection
time_range (['YYYY-MT-DY','YYYY-MT-DY']): must be inside the available data
area (ee.geometry.Geometry): area of interest
Returns:
image_composite (ee.image.Image)
"""
collection = ee.ImageCollection(collection)
## Filter by time range and location
collection_time = collection.filterDate(time_range[0], time_range[1])
image_area = collection_time.filterBounds(area)
image_composite = ee.Algorithms.Landsat.simpleComposite(image_area, 75, 3)
return image_composite
#Application to examples
composite_nithi = obtain_image_landsat_composite(collection_nithi, time_range_nithi, area_nithi)
#Selection of specific bands from an image
nithi_band = composite_nithi.select(['B4', 'B3', 'B2'])
nithi_bandVis = {
min: 0.0,
max: 30000.0,
}
print(composite_nithi.getInfo())
print(type(nithi_band))
print(type(nithi_bandVis))
def get_region(geom):

region = geom.geometry().getInfo()["coordinates"]
elif isinstance(geom, list):

if condition:
region = geom
return region
region_nithi = get_region(area_nithi)
def get_url(name, image, imageVis, scale, region):

print(url_nithi)
print(url_nithi2)
There are a couple of problems with your code.
getDownloadURL()
expects region to be an ee.Geometry
, you provided a listget_url()
doesn't specify the imageThe resulting image is a three band image. Not black and white in other words. If you're seeing a black and white image, you're probably only visualizing one of the three bands. That's not an Earth Engine related issue.
def get_url(name, image, imageVis, scale, region):
path = image.getDownloadURL({
'name': name,
'scale': scale,
'region': region,
})
webbrowser.open_new_tab(path)
return path
url_nithi = get_url('nithi0.1', nithi_band, composite_nithi, 900, area_nithi)
url_nithi2 = get_url('nithi0.2', nithi_band, nithi_bandVis, 1000, area_nithi)
