Sen2mosaic is a tool to download, preprocess and mosaic Sentinel-2 data.

Availability

Sen2mosaic is available in Puhti with following versions:

  • 0.2

Dependencies

The sen2mosaic module depends on geoconda/3.8.8 and sen2cor/2.9 modules which are loaded automatically.

Usage

Sen2mosaic is included in the sen2mosaic module and can be loaded with

module load sen2mosaic

On Puhti, you run the tools with 

s2m_download <arguments>
s2m_preprocess <arguments>
s2m_mosaic <arguments>

More information on the available arguments for each tool can be displayed with

s2m_mosaic --help

or from the sen2mosaic user manual. (Note the _ in tool names on Puhti!)

For s2m_preprocess and s2m_mosaic you can use the argument --n_processes to set the number of available CPU cores to the number of computing cores of your job.

Advanced usage

Further configuration of s2m_preprocess can be done via the L2A_GIPP.xml file (part of Sen2cor). You can find the default GIPP file in /appl/soft/geo/sen2cor/2.9/Sen2Cor-02.09.00-Linux64/lib/python2.7/site-packages/sen2cor/cfg/L2A_GIPP.xml. Copy it to your $HOME directory, adjust it to your needs and add it to the call: s2m_preprocess --gipp $HOME/L2A_GIPP.xml <other arguments>
