actinia tutorial: Jupyter notebooks

Actinia is an open source REST API for scalable, distributed, high performance processing of geographical data that uses GRASS GIS for computational tasks. It provides a REST API to process satellite images, time series of satellite images, arbitrary raster data with geographical relations and vector data.

The Jupyter notebooks included here are based on the actinia tutorial. This repository offers the tutorial chapters as notebooks, for local usage or to run via Google Colab or binder in your browser.

Getting started

The actinia Jupyter notebooks provided here can be easily executed in cloud based services. We have added launch buttons to Binder and Colab, cloud based services that can run the Jupyter notebooks. Certainly you can also execute the notebooks locally on your system.

Google Colab

In order to run a notebook, simply click on the "launch Google Colab" button. It will run the notebook for you, for interactive usage.

Using binder

In order to run a notebook, simply click on the "launch binder" button. It will start a virtual machine with the notebook for you, for interactive usage.

Using the notebooks locally

Clone this repository with git clone first. Then locally start the Jupyter notebook server from the command line in the directory containing the *.ipynb files with: jupyter notebook

This will open a new browser tab or window with a list of the contents of the current working directory. Clicking on one of the *.ipynb files will start this particular notebook.
