Using Google Earth Engine.
Help · 27 Jul 2021, 15:26 · 5

Hello.

Given that, we have the georrefereced fields, is it possible to use Google Earth Engine to extract the time-series?

Thank you.

Unfortunately no, as GEE is a paid subscription.

All the best with the challenge!

Hi amyflorida626, but GEE is free, I have an account and I don't pay any subscription. The only you need is to have a gmail account.

Look a this link: https://earthengine.google.com/faq/

"How much does it cost? Earth Engine is free for research, education, and nonprofit use. For commercial or operational applications, evaluation of Earth Engine is permitted."

Given that, I think that the organization should consider the possibility that if anyone wants to use GEE, that was allowed.

Regards.

Hello,

You can use GEE as long as you provide full documentation of how you have formatted the data on their GEE store (provide detailed explanation) so that Radiant Earth can reproduce it, and then share your GEE script as well.

This is great news, thanks:). Are you able to share the criteria used to filter and collate the S2 and S1 data for the competition? for example, is it all images for 2017 over the aoi? images with less than a given threshold of cloud cover?
