Introduction

The AWS Open Data program hosts a lot of publicly available geospatial datasets. Some of these datasets are available as SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog (STAC) endpoints. This repo compiles the list of all AWS Open geospatial datasets with a STAC endpoint as a CSV file and as a JSON file, making it easier to find and use them programmatically. The list is updated daily.

A complete list of AWS open datasets as individual YAML files is available here.

Usage

This repo provides the list of AWS open geospatial datasets with a STAC endpoint in two formats:

• Tab separated values (TSV) file: aws_stac_catalogs.tsv
• JSON file: aws_stac_catalogs.json

The TSV file can be easily read into a Pandas DataFrame using the following code:

import pandas as pd

url = 'https://github.com/giswqs/aws-open-data-stac/raw/master/aws_stac_catalogs.tsv'
df = pd.read_csv(url, sep='\t')
df.head()
