Description: AROSICS is a python package to perform automatic subpixel co-registration of two satellite image datasets based on an image matching approach working in the frequency domain, combined with a multistage workflow for effective detection of false-positives. It detects and corrects local as well as global misregistrations between two input images in the subpixel scale, that are often present in satellite imagery. The algorithm is robust against the typical difficulties of multi-sensoral / multi-temporal images. Clouds are automatically handled by the implemented outlier detection algorithms. The user may provide user-defined masks to exclude certain image areas from tie point creation. The image overlap area is automatically detected. AROSICS supports a wide range of input data formats and can be used from the command line (without any Python experience) or as a normal Python package.

Description: The EnPT Python package is an automated pre-processing pipeline for the new EnMAP hyperspectral satellite data. It provides free and open-source features to transform EnMAP Level-1B data to Level-2A. The package has been developed at the German Research Centre for Geosciences Potsdam (GFZ) as an alternative to the processing chain of the EnMAP Ground Segment.

Description: This study reviews research data policies and author instructions of 31 journals from the Earth sciences and from biodiversity that are published by German learned societies or research institutions. The statements on data publishing of the journal´s data policies / author guidelines were matched to 14 pre-defined features of journal research data policies from Hrynaszkiewicz, I. et al. (2020) Developing a Research Data Policy Framework for All Journals and Publishers. Data Science Journal, 19: 5, pp. 1–15. https://doi.org/10.5334/dsj-2020-005.

Description: Minor release to include IGRF13 coefficients, expands the type of allowed inputs into the subsol routine, fixes several bugs in edge cases, expands testing support to include Python 3.6-3.9, updates the documentation, and updates the continuous integration testing environments.

Description: SICOR is a sensor independent atmospheric correction of optical Earth Observation (EO) data from both multispectral and hyperspectral instruments. Currently, SICOR can be applied to Sentinel-2 and EnMAP data but the implementation of additional space- and airborne sensors is under development.

Description: CLI software for applying Fully Connected Neural Network (FNN) algorithm for LUCAS-2015

Description: MeshIt – a software for three dimensional volumetric meshing of complex faulted reservoirs MeshIt is a software for generating three dimensional high quality, boundary conforming Delaunay tetrahedral meshes for Finite Element (FE) or Finite Volume (FV) Thermo-Hydraulic-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) dynamic simulations of complex faulted and fractured reservoir applications. The main goal of MeshIt is to provide an open source, time efficient, robust and “easy to handle” software tool to bridge the gap between geological and dynamic forward models of flow and transport processes in reservoir domains comprising fault zones, wells (open hole section) and induced and/or natural fractures. MeshIt comes with an integrated graphical user interface (GUI) that facilitates the user during the different stages of the meshing workflows. Beside third party C libraries, the complete code has been written in the object oriented C++ programming language. In order to provide cross-platform support (Windows, Mac OS X and Unix operating systems under 32 and 64 bit) the open source project Qt has been integrated in the supported library environment. The interactive 3D graphics Application Programming Interface (API) has been developed by relying on the OpenGL library. All graphical processing stages have been interfaced to the open-source, multiplatform visualization software Paraview, the latter being based on the Visualization ToolKit (VTK).

Description: PyGMT is a library for processing geospatial and geophysical data and making publication quality maps and figures. It provides a Pythonic interface for the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT), a command-line program widely used in the Earth Sciences.

Description: The GIPPtools software utilities aid with initial pre-processing of recorded data supporting users that borrow instruments from the Geophysical Instrument Pool Potsdam (GIPP). All programs in the GIPPtools collection are designed to work with native files produced by DSS-Cube/Data-Cube3 recorders and with miniSEED files written by EDR-209/210 and PR6-24 Portable Field Recorder. However, there is absolutely no reason why the utilities should not work with miniSEED or Cube files produced by other instruments or software as well! The programs can help you to "manage" your recorded data and to prepare the dataset for import into whatever processing system you use for further scientific analysis. You can use the utilities, among other things, to convert, re-organize and cut out (seismic) data from miniSEED and Cube data files.
