Command Line Interface

Installation

The command line interface will be installed automatically when the Python library is installed. See instructions on the installation page. Use the api reference or command --help to see options to pass into python functions.

Commands

Match

global_regression

Performs global radiometric normalization across overlapping images using least squares regression.

local_block_adjustment

Performs local radiometric adjustment on a set of raster images using block-based statistics.

Mask

band_math

Applies custom band math expression to a list of input images and writes the results.

create_cloud_mask_with_omnicloudmask

Generates cloud masks from input images using OmniCloudMask, with optional downsampling and multiprocessing.

create_ndvi_raster

Computes NDVI masks for one or more images and writes them to disk.

process_raster_values_to_vector_polygons

Converts raster values into vector polygons based on an expression and optional filtering logic.

threshold_raster

Applies a thresholding operation to input raster images using a mathematical expression string.

Seamline

voronoi_center_seamline

Generates a Voronoi-based seamline mask from edge-matching polygons (EMPs) and writes the result to a vector file.

Handlers

search_paths

Search for files using a glob pattern, or a folder with a default file pattern.

create_paths

Create output paths using a filename template_pattern and a list of reference paths or names.

match_paths

Match reference_paths to input_match_paths using a regex applied to the basenames of input_match_paths. The extracted key must be a substring of the reference filename.

Utils

merge_rasters

Merges multiple rasters into a single mosaic aligned to the union extent and minimum resolution.

mask_rasters

Applies a vector-based mask to one or more rasters, with support for image- and window-level parallelism.

merge_vectors

Merge multiple vector files using the specified geometric method.

align_rasters

Aligns multiple rasters to a common resolution and grid using specified resampling.

Statistics

compare_image_spectral_profiles_pairs

Plots paired spectral profiles for before-and-after image comparisons.

compare_before_after_all_images

Creates a 2-row grid comparing before and after images with per-band contrast stretch and nodata transparency.

compare_spatial_spectral_difference_band_average

Computes and visualizes the mean per-pixel spectral difference between two coregistered, equal-size images.
