Multitemporal Cloud Masking in the GEE

This project contains a python package that extends the functionality of the Google Earth Engine python API (ee) to implement the multitemporal cloud detection algorithms of (Mateo-Garcia et al 2018) and (Gomez-Chova et al 2017).

Update 2021-11

Update 2020-06

  • The Landsat-8 collection with FMask used in the articles is not longer available. We have modified the code to work with new Landsat-8 collections (LANDSAT/LC08/C01/T1_TOA/).
  • We added a notebook that applies our method to Sentinel-2 images. (from collection COPERNICUS/S2/)
  • Notebooks can be browsed in colab.

Installation

The following code creates a fresh conda environment with required dependencies:

 conda create -c conda-forge -n ee python=3 numpy scipy jupyterlab matplotlib scikit-learn pillow requests luigi pandas scikit-image
pip install earthengine-api

python setup.py install

Examples

The examples folder contains several notebooks that go step by step in the proposed multitemporal cloud detection schemes.

  • The notebook cloudscore_different_preds.ipynb shows ready to use examples of the proposed cloud detection scheme for Landsat-8. Open In Colab
  • The notebook cloudscore_different_preds-S2.ipynb shows ready to use examples of the proposed cloud detection scheme for Sentinel-2. Open In Colab
  • The notebook multitemporal_cloud_masking_sample.ipynb explains in great detail the method for background estimation proposed in (Gomez-Chova et al 2017) Open In Colab
  • The notebook clustering_differences.ipynb explains the clustering procedure and the thresholding of the image to form the cloud mask. Open In Colab

Reproducibility

The folder reproducibility contains scripts, notebooks and instructions needed to reproduce the results of Mateo-Garcia et al 2018: Multitemporal Cloud Masking in the Google Earth Engine. See reproducibility/README.md Note: due to changes in new tier Landsat-8 collections results might change.
