Python functions and algorithms developed to assist in analysing Digital Earth Africa data (e.g. loading data, plotting, spatial analysis, machine learning).
This module is automatically installed on the Digital Earth Africa Sandbox. If for some reason the module isn't available on the Digital Earth Africa Sandbox, you can also pip install the module from the terminal.
You can install the deafrica-tools package from PyPI using:
python -m pip install --extra-index-url="https://packages.dea.ga.gov.au" deafrica-tools
or install the package from the Tools directory:
python -m pip install --extra-index-url="https://packages.dea.ga.gov.au" -e Tools/
To install this module from the source on any other system with pip:
python -m pip install --extra-index-url="https://packages.dea.ga.gov.au" git+https://github.com/digitalearthafrica/deafrica-sandbox-notebooks.git#subdirectory=Tools
The code in this module is an adaptation of code from the Digital Earth Australia dea-tools package. If you use any of the code in this repository in your work, please reference them using the following citation:

Translation of the module into other languages is done using gettext and pot/po/mo files.
We welcome contributors to help in translating the project by joining this project https://poeditor.com/join/project?hash=0Q33A7sRM6.
The template .pot file can be generated by running pybabel extract -o deafrica_tools.pot * from the Tools/ directory.
This file can then be uploaded to the deafrica_tools project on POEditor.com
To get the most recent terms and translations, download the files from the deafrica_tools project and export the the deafrica_tools.po and deafrica_tools.mo files to the deafrica_tools/locales/fr/LC_MESSAGES/ directory.
Currently, uploading and downloading terms and translations is accomplished using Github Actions.
In python code, strings surrounded by an underscore function _('') will be translated.
This _() function is declared as a global after deafrica_tools.set_lang('fr') is called.
Calling deafrica_tools.set_lang() with no argument will use the language set by JupyterLab under Settings -> Language.
See wetlandsinsighttool.py as an example.
