Dear all,
today I’d like to point to the Rocker project, which provides a suite of Docker images for particular tasks. Even though the Rocker initiative already exists since 2014 and I read about it once in a while, there were not many use cases for me to try it
Dear all,
we’re back for round two of PSI processing with StaMPS:
A GeoJSON file (Simple Feature Access standard) describing the region of interest is needed. The easiest way to create a ROI polygon is by converting an existing Layer into a bounding box in QGIS (Vector / Research
Dear all,
I have slightly revised parts of the code used in my posts on Extreme Value Analysis. While they were correct with respect to the results, some parts of the code written by former me more than two years ago were plainly ugly. I have also removed some redundancies and

Dear Sentinel-2 enthusiasts!
First of all, I would like to wish you merry christmas and happy holidays. I thought I will use my time free time inbetween family gatherings first of all for digesting delicious christmas cookies and secondly for writing a short post on how to download Sentinel-2 satellite imagery
Dear all,
during the process of streamlining my posts on extreme value analysis, I have tried to rework the import of the data sets used for my elaborations. Usually, one would definitely use custom functions to perform tasks like this data import, and I figured that this is also useful in
As announced, here comes a short introduction to Spectral Python:
What is Spectral Python?
Spectral Python or SPy is a Python module for hyperspectral image processing. It works with Python 2.6/3.3 or higher versions (Python 3.6.2 is available since yesterday! 😉).
You can read, write, visualize and classify data with SPy.
