CoastSat 2.0 MAJOR update:

  • New download and preprocess functions for Landsat images: this improvement provides better alignment between panchromatic and multispectral bands and fixes an occasional issue of a shift between L5 and L7/L8 in the resulting shoreline time-series. Note that the Sentinel-2 download and preprocessing remains exactly the same, but should be updated too eventually (I did not have time). Changes to SDS_download.py and SDS_preprocess.py were made.
  • New quality-control functions: to help with a fully automated shoreline extraction, including:
    • improved automated shoreline mapping when the manual quality-control parameters (check_detection and adjust_detection) are turned off. Changes to SDS_shoreline.py were made.
    • enhanced functionalities to compute the intersections (dealing with loops, multiple intersections etc), new function SDS_transects.compute_intersections_QC().
  • New post-processing functions: includes a despiking algorithm SDS_transects.reject_outliers() for the shoreline time-series and functions to compute seasonal and monthly averages, SDS_transects.seasonal_averages() and SDS_transects.monthly_averages().
  • Easier way to install the environment suggested by @YonniYe in #278.
