Sourcing and working with raster data - satellite imagery

This repo contains small example notebooks showing how to source raster data from STAC (spatio-temporal asset catalog) and OGC Web service endpoints. resources used to write these notebooks will be provided at the end of this readme doc.

Why does this repo exist?

Raster data (mostly satellite imagery) are available online in ever-growing volumes. One of the recurring challenges for those new to the fields of GIS and remote sensing is learning how to colelct and work with this data. I want this repository to serve as a resource for people looking for examples of how to work with raster data from online sources in python.

While not written specifically for arcpy or pyqgis, I hope the code presented in these notebooks can be a starting point if you are working in either of these systems.
