LANDSAT Data Availability

Pre-Processing

Typically, pre-processing Landsat imagery comprises the following steps:

  • import imagery in the database r.in.gdal
  • geometrically & orthometrically correct imagery [already done for L1T products?]
  • optionally, cut-off border fringes i.landsat.trim
  • optionally, correct imagery for obvious noise (intensive salt & pepper effects, stripes, etc.) for example by using i.pca
  • convert the Digital Numbers (DNs) to Top-of-Atmosphere Radiance (ToAR) i.landsat.toar
  • optionally, correct imagery for atmospheric effects (that is, accounting for distorting atmospheric effects and estimating actual reflectances as they would have been measured on the ground) i.atcorr
  • topographically normalise imagery (also known as topographic correction, that is, accounting for illumination differences due to the acquisition's geometry) i.topo.corr
  • detect, and remove, clouds and cloud shadows i.landsat.acca
  • relatively radiometrically correct imagery (also known as relative normalisation)

Modules overview

Generic modules applicable to Landsat

  • d.rgb - display 3-band data
  • r.composite - flatten 3-bands of data into a single image (lossy, maybe used in combination with i.landsat.rgb)
  • i.atcorr - correct top of atmosphere to surface reflectance - see also the Atmospheric correction wiki page
  • i.oif - calculate the 3 bands showing the greatest difference (for use as R,G,B bands)
  • i.topo.corr -used to topographically correct reflectance from imagery files, e.g. obtained with i.landsat.toar, using a sun illumination terrain model.

Landsat specific modules

Landsat specific GRASS AddOns

  • i.landsat.trim trims the "fringe" from the borders of Landsat images, for each band separately or with the MASK where coverage exists for all bands
  • i.landsat.dehaze (addon) - haze removal


Import data

  1. Open GRASS GIS, select Location Wizard in order to create a new location from georeferenced file
  2. Use r.in.gdal or the Import file tool to import the GeoTIFF files into GRASS GIS. See also Automated data import below.
    1. Most Landsat scenes are delivered in north-is-up orientation, hence import is straightforward
    2. If you get ERROR: Input map is rotated - cannot import., the image must be first externally rotated, applying the rotation info stored in the metadata field of the raster image file. For example, the gdalwarp software can be used to transform the map to North-up (note, there are several gdalwarp parameters to select the resampling algorithm): 
        gdalwarp rotated.tif northup.tif


Automated data import

An example of Python script bellow imports raster data into GRASS. For each image creates its own mapset and imports bands as B<id>, e.g. B10, B20, ..., B80. This script also sets up timestamp based on MTL file.

The i.landsat.toar and i.landsat.acca modules want the maps to be named such as "scenename.1, .2, .3", etc. for the different bands. GloVis names LANDSAT-7 like _B10, _B20, _B30, etc. Save the following script as "import_landsat.py" file: 

#!/usr/bin/python
 
import os
import sys
import glob
import grass.script as grass
 
def get_timestamp(mapset):
    try:
        metafile = glob.glob(mapset + '/*MTL.txt')[0]
    except IndexError:
        return
 
    result = dict()
    try:
        fd = open(metafile)
        for line in fd.readlines():
            line = line.rstrip('\n')
            if len(line) == 0:
                continue
            if 'ACQUISITION_DATE' in line:
                result['date'] = line.strip().split('=')[1].strip()
    finally:
        fd.close()
 
    return result
 
def import_tifs(mapset):
    meta = get_timestamp(mapset)
    for file in os.listdir(mapset):
        if os.path.splitext(file)[-1] != '.TIF':
            continue
        ffile = os.path.join(mapset, file)
        name = os.path.splitext(file)[0].split('_')[-1]
        band = int(name[-1])
        grass.message('Importing %s -> %s@%s...' % (file, name, mapset))
        grass.run_command('g.mapset',
                          flags = 'c',
                          mapset = mapset,
                          quiet = True,
                          stderr = open(os.devnull, 'w'))
        grass.run_command('r.in.gdal',
                          input = ffile,
                          output = name,
                          quiet = True,

                          title = 'band %d' % band)
        if meta:
            year, month, day = meta['date'].split('-')
            if month == '01':
                month = 'jan'
            elif month == '02':
                month = 'feb'
            elif month == '03':
                month = 'mar'

            grass.run_command('r.timestamp',

def main():
    if len(sys.argv) == 1:
        for directory in filter(os.path.isdir, os.listdir(os.getcwd())):

    else:
        import_tifs(sys.argv[1])
 
if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Example of usage:

  • ./import_landsat.py walk through current directory and import all found satellite images.
  • ./import_landsat.py LM41890261983200FFF03 imports images only from given directory.

Hint: Minimal disk space copies

Here's a little trick using r.reclass to rename maps (for example, from L71074092_09220040924_B10 to L71074092_09220040924_B1) without touching the data or wasting disk space: 

BASE=L71074092_09220040924

for BAND in 10 20 30 40 50 61 70 80; do
  BAND1st=`echo $BAND | sed -e 's/0$//'`
  r.reclass in="${BASE}_B$BAND" out=$BASE.$BAND1st << EOF
    * = *
EOF
done

Natural color composites

Solution A) use i.landsat.rgb

Solution B) equalize colors on each R,G,B band with 

r.colors -e map=band1 color=grey

Composite: then run r.composite

Reset color tables

BASE=L71074092_09220040924

for map in `g.mlist pat="$BASE.[0-8]*"` ; do
  r.colors $map color=grey255
done

Create a MASK to only show data where coverage exists for all bands

BASE=L71074092_09220040924

g.region rast=$BASE.1
r.series in=`g.mlist pat="$BASE.[0-8]*" sep=,` -n out=$BASE.thresh method=threshold thresh=1
r.mapcalc "$BASE.mask = if(isnull($BASE.thresh))"
g.remove $BASE.thresh

Calculate Top-of-Atmosphere Reflectance and band-6 Temperature

Calculate Top-of-Atmosphere reflectance and band-6 temperature using the i.landsat.toar module. Note, use the -t switch only in case of an MTL metadata file, not a MET file. For details, refer to the USGS' Landsat Filename and Metadata Changes dedicated page. 

 i.landsat.toar input_prefix=$BASE output_prefix=${BASE}_toar sensor=tm7 metfile=${BASE}_MTL.txt -t

Note, the resulting temperature map is in Kelvin: 

 # convert to degree Celsius
 r.mapcalc "$BASE.temp_celsius = ${BASE}_toar.6 - 273.15"
 r.info -r $BASE.temp_celsius

Haze removal

Simple haze removal can be done with i.landsat.dehaze. i.landsat.dehaze applies a bandwise haze correction using tasscap4 (haze) and linear regression.


Atmospheric correction

See Atmospheric correction

Cloud identification

Identify clouds in the image with i.landsat.acca: 

i.landsat.acca -f input_prefix=226_62_toar. output=226_62.acca_cloudmask

Mask out the clouds: 

r.mapcalc "MASK = if(isnull($BASE.acca_cloudmask))"

Preprocessed Landsat-7 data for North Carolina

The North Carolina 2008 sample dataset comes with 3 different Landsat scenes:

(Wake County -- path: 16 row: 35 for various dates)

The above import efforts are not needed since the data are already in a GRASS location.
