wxee.image.Image.to_tif

Image.to_tif(out_dir: str = '.', description: str | None = None, region: Geometry | None = None, scale: int | None = None, crs: str = 'EPSG:4326', file_per_band: bool = False, masked: bool = True, nodata: int = -32768, progress: bool = True, max_attempts: int = 10) List[str][source]

Download an image to geoTIFF.

Parameters:
  • out_dir (str, default ".") – The directory to save the image to.

  • description (str, optional) – The name to save the file as with no file extension. If none is provided, the system:id of the image will be used.

  • region (ee.Geometry, optional) – The region to download the image within. If none is provided, the geometry of the image will be used.

  • scale (int, optional) – The scale to download the image at in the CRS units. If none is provided, the projection.nominalScale of the image will be used.

  • crs (str, default "EPSG:4326") – The coordinate reference system to download the image in.

  • file_per_band (bool, default False) – If true, one file will be downloaded per band. If false, one multiband file will be downloaded instead.

  • masked (bool, default True) – If true, the nodata value of the image will be set in the image metadata.

  • nodata (int, default -32,768) – The value to set as nodata in the image. Any masked pixels in the image will be filled with this value.

  • progress (bool, default True) – If true, a progress bar will be displayed to track download progress.

  • max_attempts (int, default 10) – Download requests to Earth Engine may intermittently fail. Failed attempts will be retried up to max_attempts. Must be between 1 and 99.

Returns:

Paths to downloaded images.

Return type:

list[str]

Raises:

DownloadError – Raised if the image cannot be successfully downloaded after the maximum number of attempts.
