The package uses the 'Sentinel Hub' REST API interface [Sentinel Hub](https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/analyse/apis/sentinel-hub) that provides access to various satellite imagery archives. It allows you to access raw satellite data, rendered images, statistical analysis, and other features. [CDSE CRAN page](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/CDSE/index.html) OpenEO is an open-source project aimed at standardizing and simplifying access to Earth observation data and processing services. It provides a common API that abstracts away the complexities of accessing and processing Earth observation data, allowing users to interact with multiple back-end processing engines through a unified interface. [openEO CRAN page](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/openeo/index.html) Both methods require [registering](https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/) on the Copernicus DataSpace. This vignette provides a detailed guide on acquiring Sentinel-2 imagery using both the CDSE (Copernicus Data and Exploitation Platform - SciHub) and the openEO platform. ## Acquiring Sentinel-2 Imagery using CDSE To utilize the CDSE package for accessing Copernicus data, follow these steps: ### Step 1: Install Required Packages Ensure you have the `CDSE` and `jsonlite` packages installed: ```{r setup, results='hide', eval=FALSE} #remotes::install_github("ropensci/rOPTRAM") library(rOPTRAM) if (!require("CDSE")) install.packages("CDSE", dependencies = TRUE) if (!require("jsonlite")) install.packages("jsonlite", dependencies = TRUE) ``` ### Step 2: Create CDSE Account and OAuth Client 1. Navigate to the [Copernicus portal](https://dataspace.copernicus.eu/). 2. Click the "Register" button to access the account creation page. 3. If already registered, log in to your account. ### Step 3: Creating OAuth Client: 1. After logging in, go to the User Settings page. 2. Click the green "Create New" button to create a new OAuth client. 3. Enter a suitable "Client Name" and click "Create Client". ![](images/create_OAuth.jpg){width="630"} 4. A Client secret will be generated. Make sure to **copy your new personal OAuth secret** immediately after it is created. You will not be able to see it again later. 5. Copy the new client id. ![](images/client_id.jpg) ### Step 4: Saving Credentials: - **Save your client ID and secret in a secure location.** - Then the easiest option to save your credentials is by using `store_cdse_credentials`. Simply call it with the appropriate client ID and secret as arguments. Alternatively, you can set environment variables `OAUTH_CLIENTID` and `OAUTH_SECRET`. ```{r prepare-save-1, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', eval=FALSE} # Example usage: store_cdse_credentials(clientid = "your_client_id", secret = "your_secret_key") # Alternatively, after setting your environment variables, you can use them like this: store_cdse_credentials(Sys.getenv("OAUTH_CLIENTID"), Sys.getenv("OAUTH_SECRET")) ``` Afterward, you can utilize either `optram_acquire_s2` or `acquire_scihub` ```{r prepare-save-2, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', eval=FALSE} # For this example, outputs are saved to `tempdir()` from_date <- "2018-12-01" to_date <- "2019-04-30" # aoi <- {sf} object, POLYGON or MULTIPOLYGON of AOI area # rOPTRAM_aoi_example aoi <- sf::st_read(system.file("extdata", "lachish.gpkg", package = 'rOPTRAM')) boa_files <- acquire_scihub(aoi, from_date, to_date, veg_index = "SAVI", output_dir = tempdir(), SWIR_band = 11) ``` Alternatively, you can use the `save_creds` option. At the first run, set `save_creds = TRUE` and enter your clientid and secret as variables in the `optram_acquire_s2` or `acquire_scihub` functions to automatically save credentials. From there, you can use those functions as shown above without needing to insert credentials again. ```{r prepare-save-3, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', eval=FALSE} # For this example, outputs are saved to `tempdir()` from_date <- "2018-12-01" to_date <- "2019-04-30" # rOPTRAM_aoi_example optram_options("SWIR_band", 11) optram_options("veg_index", "SAVI") aoi <- sf::st_read(system.file("extdata", "lachish.gpkg", package = 'rOPTRAM')) boa_files <- acquire_scihub(aoi, from_date, to_date, veg_index = "SAVI", output_dir = tempdir(), # For the first run, uncomment below, and supply credentials... # save_creds = TRUE, # clientid = "your_client_id", # secret = "your_secret" ) ``` - If you choose to use the env option, you can utilize either `optram_acquire_s2` or `acquire_scihub`. To enable the environment variable option, set `save_creds = TRUE` when calling either function. By doing so, you won't need to manually enter your Client ID and secret. Your code snippet might resemble the following: ```{r prepare-save-4, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', eval=FALSE} from_date <- "2018-12-01" to_date <- "2019-04-30" # rOPTRAM_aoi_example aoi <- sf::st_read(system.file("extdata", "lachish.gpkg", package = 'rOPTRAM')) boa_files <- acquire_scihub(aoi, from_date, to_date, output_dir = tempdir(), # For the first run, uncomment below # save_creds = TRUE, ) # It will trigger the store_cdse_credentials function from utilities.R, and your # credentials will be saved as a JSON file named cdse_credentials.json. ``` ### Step 5: Acquire Sentinel-2 Imagery For further downloads the credentials are not needed. (They have been saved to the user's home directory) ```{r acquire-1, warning=FALSE, message=FALSE, results='hide', eval=FALSE} from_date <- "2019-12-01" to_date <- "2020-04-30" boa_files <- acquire_scihub(aoi, from_date, to_date, output_dir = tempdir()) ``` ## Acquiring Sentinel-2 Imagery using openEO To use openEO for accessing Copernicus data, follow these steps: ### Step 1: Install Required Packages Ensure you have the `openeo` package installed: ```{r acquire-2, eval=FALSE} # install.packages("openeo") if (!require("openeo")) install.packages("openeo", dependencies = TRUE) ``` ### Step 2: Connect to openEO Platform #### Registration Process: For detailed instructions on how to register for the Copernicus Data Space, please visit: [Registration Manual](https://documentation.dataspace.copernicus.eu/Registration.html) #### Login Process: A. When you run the `acquire_openeo()` function, it internally calls the `check_openeo()` function. If the `openeo` package is not installed, it will be installed automatically. B. When prompted, press enter to proceed. ![](images/login_enter_to_proceed.jpg) C. You will be redirected to the Copernicus authentication page. Log in and grant access. ![](images/login_login.jpg){width="476"} ![](images/login_grant_access.png){width="476"} ### Step 3: Acquire Sentinel-2 Imagery You can specify your `output_dir` parameter to indicate the path where downloaded and processed imagery will be saved. For this example, outputs are saved to `tempdir()` ```{r acquire-3, eval=FALSE} from_date <- "2018-12-01" to_date <- "2019-03-30" acquire_openeo(aoi, from_date, to_date, output_dir = tempdir()) ``` ## Conclusion This vignette provides comprehensive instructions for acquiring Sentinel-2 imagery using both CDSE and openEO platforms. Ensure you have the necessary credentials and packages installed to access Copernicus data efficiently.
