Add .kip imageryΒΆ
GEE can use pre-processed imagery in Keyhole Imagery Product
(.kip
) format. Each .kip
folder has a corresponding
Keyhole Mask Product (.kmp
) folder that contains the mask
for the imagery. The corresponding folders have the same name.
To add .kip
imagery to the asset tree:
Store each
.kip/.kmp
folder pair in the same directory.Set read-and-execute permissions for the
keyhole:users
account.Use the
khnewimageryasset --havemask
command to add the files. Specify the asset name, the provider information (USGS), and the location of the.kip
folder. For example, ifcity_one.kip
andcity_one.kmp
are in/gevol/src/preprocessed/noame/usa/
, the command is:genewimageryasset --havemask --provider (PROVIDER_KEY) -o path/to/asset/in/tree/gevol/src/preprocessed/noame/usa/city_one.kip
Repeat this step for each
.kip/.kmp
combination you want to add.
You can access the assets from the Fusion Asset Manager whenever
you want to use them in imagery projects. You are still required to
build each asset in the system, but the build time will be
insignificant because each .kip/.kmp
combination is
preprocessed.
