ArcticDEM-Batch-Pipeline
ArcticDEM project was a joint project supported by both the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency(NGA) and the National Science Foundation(NSF) with the idea of creating a high resolution and high quality digital surface model(DSM). The product is distributed free of cost as time-dependent DEM strips and is hosted as https links that a user can use to download each strip.
With this in mind and with the potential applications of using these toolsets there was a need to batch download the DEM files for your area of interest and to be able to extract, clean and process metadata. In all fairness this tool has a motive of extending this as an input to Google Earth Engine and hence the last tool which is the metadata parser is designed to create a metadata manifest in a csv file which GEE can understand and associate during asset upload.
Changelog
v0.2.0
- Major overhaul of underlying program
- Most functions have been rewritten and optimized to meet Python3 standards
- Async unpacker has been included for faster extraction of files
- Overall estimation of size tool as well as geometry functions have been Optimized
- Auto installation of libraries for windows has been enabled using pipwin
- Autochecks for updated version on PyPI and informs the user

- Python 3 and linux compatibility
[0.1.1] - 2017-08-12
Added
- Can now handle ogr input and includes instruction to project aoi in same projection as DEM strip.
- Added the capability of skipping over already downloaded files and continues with left over downloads.
- Completed recompiling executable to include changes.
