Data & Methods

The orthophoto and real estate data for this case study can be downloaded here:

Read netCDF files

All data is provided in netcdf-Format and can thus easily be read into python via:

import xarray as xr

data = xr.open_dataset("data/oberschelden.nc")

The orthophoto and real estate data is structured in an xr.DataSet with 4 variables:

data
<xarray.Dataset>
Dimensions:         (x: 13224, y: 11108)
Coordinates:
  * y               (y) float64 5.636e+06 5.636e+06 ... 5.635e+06 5.635e+06
  * x               (x) float64 4.253e+05 4.253e+05 ... 4.266e+05 4.266e+05
Data variables:
    buildings_mask  (y, x) uint8 ...
    red             (y, x) uint8 ...
    green           (y, x) uint8 ...
    blue            (y, x) uint8 ...
