earthengine-image-downloader

This script consists of the most suitable way to integrate geopy and google earth-engine in such a way that you can automatically download the satellite images for training purposes in machine learning .I have tried the google-colab and the normal terminal preinstalled packages but the task here is to give the authentication key and its a difficult task in between code execution.So i prefer you to use anaconda enviornment it will automatically stores the api in cache and it saves time from a user to reauthenticate.

REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLING........

1. INSTALL ANACONDA

   https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/install/

2. CONFIGURING THE PACKAGES

• To install this package with conda run one of the following:

  conda install -c conda-forge earthengine-api

  conda install -c conda-forge/label/gcc7 earthengine-api

  conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf201901 earthengine-api

• Get Credentials Before getting credentials its better to try google earth engine is already authenticated so in your conda enviornment type

      # earthengine authenticate
  

3. Testing the API

   • Start a python interpreter from your conda by typing python # python

   • Run the following Python lines one-by-one in python interpreter to print the metadata for a DEM dataset

         # import ee
         
         # ee.Initialize()
         
         # print(ee.Image('USGS/SRTMGL1_003').getInfo())
     

     EUREKA !!!! you have completed the level one :) smile

     LETS MOVE TO LEVEL 2

4. Now you require to download some python packages

   • GEOPY

     Used to convet location into coordinates

      # pip install geopy
     

   • PARALLEL SYNC

     Used to download files and extract it into your computer

      # pip install parallel-sync
     

   • ast and math are preinstalled with python

execute the code

   # python3 satellite.py
   >>enter the location: (enter a location) 

ignore the warnings and enjoy the downloads and find your file in path defined

keep coding (:
