Examples

Mapchete-EO Drivers

You can execute mapchete-eo drivers as any other mapchete processes.

Sentinel-2 First Pixel

This example uses Sentinel-2 data and picks the first available cloud-free pixel from a time range.

Sentinel-2 NDVI

Calculate the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) from Sentinel-2 data.

Sentinel-2 Temporal Mean

Create a temporal mean composite of cloud-free pixels over a given time range.

Usage

Here is how to execute the mapchete-eo drivers via mapchete execute on one of the examples.

$ mapchete execute sentinel-2_2025-may-june_first-pixel.mapchete

This will run mapchete executor (default: processes) and output the processing into the path under output specified in the mapchete file config.

The sentinel-2_2025-may-june_first-pixel.mapchete example shows capabilities by reading the Element84 curated Sentinel-2 Cloud-Optimized GeoTiff (COG) data, which can be read publicly without incurring costs.
