OrfeoToolbox (OTB) archetypes

The OTB archetypes are Ellip templates that provide you with a ready-to run application to process EO data (Sentinel-1 and 2, Landsat-8, COSMO-SkyMed, RADARSAT-2 and TerraSAR-X) with a single or a sequence of OTB applications. The OTB archetypes can thus be used to develop new OTB application where only a few customisation steps are required:

• Define what OTB steps to apply to EO data
• Expose as many parameters as desired for the fine grain processing scenarios

All these archetypes are written in Python. The OTB archetypes include:

Landsat 8 one-to-one

Landsat-8 products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Landsat-8 product and producing one result per Landsat-8 input.The application provided here calculates the NDVI vegetation index with Landsat-8 OLI data. This archetypes uses the OTB application XML to define the operations.

Sentinel-1 one-to-one

Sentinel-1 products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Sentinel-1 product and producing one result per Sentinel-1 input.The application provided here does the SAR Deburst of a Sentinel-1 product.

Sentinel-2 one-to-one

Sentinel-2 products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Sentinel-2 product and producing one result per Sentinel-2 input.The application provided here does a K-Means Classification of the Sentinel-2 products provided as inputs.

Pleiades one-to-one

Pléiades products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Pléiades product and producing one result per Pléiades input.The application provided here does the optical calibration and adds an alpha band for visualisation purposes.

Kompsat-2 one-to-one

Kompsat-2 products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Kompsat-2 product and producing one result per Kompsat-2 input.The application provided here does the optical calibration and performs the pansharpening for visualisation purposes.

Kompsat-3 one-to-one

Kompsat-3 products processed in parallel with a sequence of OTB applications taking one Kompsat-3 product and producing one result per Kompsat-3 input.The application provided here does the optical calibration and performs the pansharpening for visualisation purposes.
