Script for Downloading WMTS Tiles from the City of Vienna's Orthofoto 2021

This is a Fork of jimutt's tiles-to-tiff for retrieving the 2021 Orthofoto of the City of Vienna in 15cm² resolution

Python script for converting XYZ raster tiles for WMTS to a georeferenced TIFF image.

I adapted a couple of lines in order to retrieve the Orthofoto of the City of Vienna for a Machine Learning project. The focus is classifying different building-types (e.g. Blocklike-Buildings, Single-Family Homes, Offices, etc.) and detecting cars.

Jimutt originally wrote it for this tutorial: https://dev.to/jimutt/generate-merged-geotiff-imagery-from-web-maps-xyz-tile-servers-with-python-4d13

Prerequisites:

• GDAL
• Empty "output" and "temp" folders in project directory.

Usage:

• Modify configuration in tiles_to_tiff.py according to personal preferences.
• Run script with $ python tiles_to_tiff.py
