Processing Landsat 8 imagery in Windows with OSGeo4W Shell and ImageMagick
::modified from Mapbox's guide https://www.mapbox.com/guides/processing-satellite-imagery/ for Windows
::requires OSGeo4W Shell (comes installed with QGIS) and ImageMagick http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows
::I paste all of the lines below into the OSGeo4W Shell which I've changed directory to my expanded Landsat archive e.g. `C:\Users\joe\Downloads\LC80430352015089LGN00.tar>`
::establish an id variable
SET id=LC81600432014154LGN00
::use a for loop to reproject each of the bands you will be working with.

MODIS downloads are stored as .hdf files which makes them non-trivial to interact with.

I've previously mentioned using HEG but for a more streamlined approach we're going to want to use gdal.

Compiling GDAL with HDF4 support can actually be done fairly easily using brew although information on this was a bear to find. Thanks to Wood Sun we can do this via three commands

brew tap homebrew/versions
brew install hdf4
brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/geoalchimista/homebrew/master/formulae/gdal.rb --with-hdf4

# Beta-quality Landsat 8-oriented windowed pansharpener by Charlie Loyd
# python3 panchunk.py $SCENE/*B{4,3,2,8}.TIF ${SCENE}-pansharp.tif
# Then you may want something like this to brighten it up:
# convert -channel B -gamma 0.96 -channel RGB -sigmoidal-contrast 40,14% ${SCENE}-pansharp.tif ${SCENE}-pretty.tif
# But that will strip geo tags.

Storytelling from Space

Storytelling from Space: Tools/Resources

This list of resources is all about acquring and processing aerial imagery. It's generally broken up in three ways: how to go about this in Photoshop/GIMP, using command-line tools, or in GIS software, depending what's most comfortable to you. Often these tools can be used in conjunction with each other.

This is my default career advice for people starting out in geo/GIS, especially remote sensing, adapted from a response to a letter in 2013.

I'm currently about to start a Geography degree at the University of [Redacted] at [Redacted] with a focus in GIS, and I've been finding that I have an interest in working with imagery. Obviously I should take Remote Sensing and other similar classes, but I'm the type of person who likes to self learn as well. So my question is this: What recommendations would you give to a student who is interested in working with imagery? Are there any self study paths that you could recommend?

I learned on my own and on the job, and there are a lot of important topics in GIS that I don’t know anything about, so I can’t give comprehensive advice. I haven’t arrived anywhere; I’m just ten minutes ahead in the convoy we’re both in. Take these recommendations critically.

Find interesting people. You’ll learn a lot more from a great professor (or mentor, or friend, or conference) o
