Google Earth Engine - RGB image export from ImageCollection Python API - python-3.x

I encounter some problems with the Google Earth Engine python API to generate a RGB image based on an ImageCollection.
Basically to transform the ImageCollection into an Image, I apply a median reduction. After this reduction, I apply the visualize function where I need to define the different variables like the min and max. The problem is that these two values are image dependent.
dataset = ee.ImageCollection('LANDSAT/LC08/C01/T1_SR')
.filterBounds(ee.Geometry.Polygon([[39.05789266, 13.59051553],
[39.11335033, 13.59051553],
[39.11335033, 13.64477783],
[39.05789266, 13.64477783],
[39.05789266, 13.59051553]]))
.filterDate('2016-01-01', '2016-12-31')
.select(['B4', 'B3', 'B2'])
reduction = dataset.reduce('median')
.visualize(bands=['B4_median', 'B3_median', 'B2_median'],
min=0,
max=3000,
gamma=1)
Thus for each different image I need to process these two values that can sightly change. Since the number of images I need to generate is huge, It is impossible to do that manually. I do not know how to overcome this problem and I cannot find any answer to that problem. An idea would be to find the minimal value of the image and the maximum value. But I did not find any function that allows to do that on the Javascript or python API.
I hope that someone will be able to help me.

You can use img.reduceRegion() to get image statistics for the region you want and for each image to export. You will have to call the results of the region reduction into the visualization function. Here is an example:
geom = ee.Geometry.Polygon([[39.05789266, 13.59051553],
[39.11335033, 13.59051553],
[39.11335033, 13.64477783],
[39.05789266, 13.64477783],
[39.05789266, 13.59051553]])
dataset = ee.ImageCollection('LANDSAT/LC08/C01/T1_SR')\
.filterBounds(geom)\
.filterDate('2016-01-01', '2016-12-31')\
.select(['B4', 'B3', 'B2'])
reduction = dataset.median()
stats = reduction.reduceRegion(reducer=ee.Reducer.minMax(),geometry=geom,scale=100,bestEffort=True)
statDict = stats.getInfo()
prettyImg = reduction.visualize(bands=['B4', 'B3', 'B2'],
min=[statDict['B4_min'],statDict['B3_min'],statDict['B2_min']]
max=[statDict['B4_max'],statDict['B3_max'],statDict['B2_max']],
gamma=1)
Using this approach, I get an output image like this:
I hope this helps!

Problems Converting Numpy/OpenCV Array Image into a Wand Image

I'm currently trying to perform a Polar to Cartesian Coordinate Image transformation, to display a raw sonar image into a 'fan-display'.
Initially I have a Numpy Array image of type np.float64, that can be seen below:
After doing some searching, I came across this StackOverflow post Inverse transform an image from Polar to Cartesian in OpenCV with a very similar problem, in which the poster seemed to have solved his/her issue by using the Python Wand library (http://docs.wand-py.org/en/0.5.9/index.html), specifically using their set of Distortion functions.
However, when I tried to use Wand and read the image in, I instead ended up with Wand getting the image below, which seems to be smaller than the original one. However, the weird thing is that img.size still gives the same size number as the original image's shape.
The code for this transformation can be seen below:
print(raw_img.shape)
wand_img = Image.from_array(raw_img.astype(np.uint8), channel_map="I") #=> (369, 256)
display(wand_img)
print("Current image size", wand_img.size) #=> "Current image size (369, 256)"
This is definitely quite problematic as Wand will automatically give the wrong 'fan image'. Is anybody familiar with this kind of problem with the Wand library previously, and if yes, may I ask what is the recommended solution to fix this issue?
If this issue isn't resolved soon I have an alternative backup of using OpenCV's cv::remap function (https://docs.opencv.org/4.1.2/da/d54/group__imgproc__transform.html#ga5bb5a1fea74ea38e1a5445ca803ff121). However the problem with this is that I'm not sure what mapping arrays (i.e. map_x and map_y) to use to perform the Polar->Cartesian transformation, as using a mapping matrix that implements the transformation equations below:
r = polar_distances(raw_img)
x = r * cos(theta)
y = r * sin(theta)
didn't seem to work and instead threw out errors from OpenCV as well.
Any kind of help and insight into this issue is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

EDIT I've tried on another image example as well, and it still shows a similar problem. So first, I imported the image into Python using OpenCV, using these lines of code:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from wand.image import Image
from wand.display import display
import cv2
img = cv2.imread("Test_Img.jpg")
img_rgb = cv2.cvtColor(img, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
plt.figure()
plt.imshow(img_rgb)
plt.show()
which showed the following display as a result:
However, as I continued and tried to open the img_rgb object with Wand, using the code below:
wand_img = Image.from_array(img_rgb)
display(img_rgb)
I'm getting the following result instead.
I tried to open the image using wand.image.Image() on the file directly, which is able to display the image correctly when using display() function, so I believe that there isn't anything wrong with the wand library installation on the system.
Is there a missing step that I required to convert the numpy into Wand Image that I'm missing? If so, what would it be and what is the suggested method to do so?
Please do keep in mind that I'm stressing the conversion of Numpy to Wand Image quite crucial, the raw sonar images are stored as binary data, thus the required use of Numpy to convert them to proper images.
Is there a missing step that I required to convert the numpy into Wand Image that I'm missing?
No, but there is a bug in Wand's Numpy implementation in Wand 0.5.x. The shape of OpenCV's ndarray is (ROWS, COLUMNS, CHANNELS), but Wand's ndarray is (WIDTH, HEIGHT, CHANNELS). I believe this has been fixed for the future 0.6.x releases.
If so, what would it be and what is the suggested method to do so?
Swap the values in img_rgb.shape before passing to Wand.
img_rgb.shape = (img_rgb.shape[1], img_rgb.shape[0], img_rgb.shape[2],)
with Image.from_array(img_rgb) as img:
display(img)

Photutils DAOPhot Not Fitting stars well?

I recently ran across the PhotUtils package and am trying to use it to perform PSF Photometry on some images I have. However, when I try to run the code, I get very strange results. When I plot the image generated by get_residual_image(), the stars are not removed well. Some sample images are shown below.
The first image has sigma set to 2.05, as it is in one of the sample programs in the PhotUtils documentation:
However, the stars only appear to be removed in their center.
The second image has sigma set to 5.0. This one is especially strange. Some stars are way over-removed, some are under removed, some black squares are added to the image, etc.
Here is my code:
import photutils
from photutils.psf import DAOPhotPSFPhotometry as DAOP
from photutils.psf import IntegratedGaussianPRF as PRF
from photutils.background import MMMBackground
bkg = MMMBackground()
background = 2.5*bkg(img)
gaussian_prf = PRF(sigma=5.0)
gaussian_prf.sigma.fixed = False
photTester = DAOP(8,background,5,gaussian_prf,31)
photResults = photTester(imgStars)
finalImg = photTester.get_residual_image()
After this, I simply plot the original and final image in MatPlotLib. I use a greyscale colormap. The reason that the left images appear slightly darker is that they use a different color scaling.
Perhaps I have set one of the parameters incorrectly?
Could someone help me out with this? Thank you!
Looking at the residual image instantly told me that the background subtraction might be wrong. I could reproduce the result and wondered, if MMMBackground did not do the job correctly.
After taking a closer look at the documentation, Getting startet with Photutils finally gave the essential hint:
image -= np.median(image)

how to make a wind quiver plot on the geospatial map using plotly?

I have a series of the wind dataset with u/v component and try to make it as the quiver (wind vector) plot using plot.ly on the geospatial map. However, I still get troubles to make it happen. Could someone please help me to figure this out?
Following is my code
###- This is operating on Jupyter lab with dash extension
###- lon/lat/u/v are 2-D numpy array
fig = ff.create_quiver(lon,lat,u,v,
scale=.25,
arrow_scale=.4,
name='quiver',
line=dict(width=1))
fig['layout'].update(title='Quiver Plot')
fig['layout'].update(geo=dict(
resolution=50,
scope='usa',
showframe=False,
showcoastlines=True,
showland=True,
landcolor="lightgray",
countrycolor="white" ,
coastlinecolor="white",
projection=dict(type='equirectangular'),
domain = dict(x=[0, 1], y=[ 0, 1])
))
app = dash.Dash(__name__, external_stylesheets=external_stylesheets)
app.layout = html.Div(children=[
html.H1(children='Hello Dash'),
dcc.Graph(
id='example-graph-0',
figure=fig),
])
viewer.show(app)
You will not be able to use annotations on a scattermapbox while retaining the geo position of the arrows.
See my solution on how to find the arrow points and add them to the map as traces.
If you have several traces, even 40-50 traces or arrows, performances will plummet.
This is a known issue with plotly unfortunately which, I think, makes it basically useless.
You can look into other map APIs like google maps and apple maps. I tested google maps in a angular app and performance are great.

How to modify orientation of mgh/dicom/nifti file using nibabel

I have a hard time, figuring out a proper affine transformation for 3 different views i.e. coronal, axial and saggital, each having separate issues like below:
1: Axial color map get overlapped with the saggital original view.
2: Similarly Sagittal color map gets overlapped with the axial original image.
3: And everyone has some kind of orientation issues like best visible here when the color map and original image for coronal come correct but with wrong orientation.
I am saving the original file that I am sending to the server for some kind of prediction, which generates a color map and returns that file for visualization, later I am displaying everything together.
In server after prediction, here is the code to save the file.
nifti_img = nib.MGHImage(idx, affine, header=header)
Whereas affine and header are the original affine and header extracted from the file I sent.
I need to process "idx" value that holds the raw data in Numpy array format, but not sure what exactly to be done. Need help here.
Was trying hard to solve the issue using nibabel python library, but due to very limited knowledge of mine about how these files work and about affine transformation, I am having a hard time figuring out what should I do to make them correct.
I am using AMI js with threejs support in the frontend and nibabel with python in the back end. Solution on the frontend or back end anywhere is acceptable.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
img = nib.load(img_path)
# check the orientation you wanna reorient.
# For example, the original orientation of img is RPI,
# you wanna reorient it to RAS, the second the third axes should be flipped
# ornt[P, 1] is flip of axis N, where 1 means no flip and -1 means flip.
ornt = np.array([[0, 1],
[1, -1],
[2, -1]])
img_orient = img.as_reoriented(ornt)
nib.save(img_orient, img_path)
It was simple, using numpy.moveaxis() and numpy.flip() operation on rawdata from nibabel. as below.
# Getting raw data back to process for better orienation and label mapping.
orig_img_data = nib.MGHImage(numpy_arr, affine)
nifti_img = nib.MGHImage(segmented_arr_output, affine)
# Getting original and predicted data to preprocess to original shape and view for visualisation.
orig_img = orig_img_data.get_fdata()
seg_img = nifti_img.get_fdata()
# Placing proper views in proper place and flipping it for a better visualisation as required.
# moveaxis to get original order.
orig_img_ = np.moveaxis(orig_img, -1, 0)
seg_img = np.moveaxis(seg_img, -1, 0)
# Flip axis to overcome mirror image/ flipped view.
orig_img_ = np.flip(orig_img_, 2)
seg_img = np.flip(seg_img, 2)
orig_img_data_ = nib.MGHImage(orig_img_.astype(np.uint8), np.eye(4), header)
nifti_img_ = nib.MGHImage(seg_img.astype(np.uint8), np.eye(4), header)
Note: It's very important to have same affine matrix to wrap both of these array back. A 4*4 Identity matrix is better rather than using original affine matrix as that was creating problem for me.

Basic importing coordinates into R and setting projection

Ok, I am trying to upload a .csv file, get it into a spatial points data frame and set the projection system to WGS 84. I then want to determine the distance between each point This is what I have come up with but I
cluster<-read.csv(file = "cluster.csv", stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
coordinates(cluster)<- ~Latitude+Longitude
cluster<-CRS("+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84")
d<-dist2Line(cluster)
This returns an error that says
Error in .pointsToMatrix(p) :
points should be vectors of length 2, matrices with 2 columns, or inheriting from a SpatialPoints* object
But this isn't working and I will be honest that I don't fully comprehend importing and manipulating spatial data in R. Any help would be great. Thanks
I was able to determine the issue I was running into. With WGS 84, the longitude comes before the latitude. This is just backwards from how all the GPS data I download is formatted (e.g. lat-long). Hope this helps anyone else who runs into this issue!
thus the code should have been
cluster<-read.csv(file = "cluster.csv", stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
coordinates(cluster)<- ~Longitude+Latitude
cluster<-CRS("+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84")
