HANTS-GEE

This repository aims to introduce the HANTS-GEE (Latest update: 25/09/2024) package, a scalable implimentation of HANTS for time sereis reconstruction in remote sensing on Google Earth Engine platform.

The Harmonic ANalysis of Time Series (HANTS) was proposed by Verheof (1996) and Menenti et al. (1993) to reconstruct time series of remote sensing products such as NDVI and LAI. The algorithm had been widely used in the remote sensing community and implemented in Fortran, IDL/ENVI, Matlab, C, and Python. The script in this file aim to implement the HANTS in GEE, which can avoid donwloading large volume dataset to local PC and also make full use of the powerfull computation resource of GEE.

Main features:
  • Complete HANTS kernel implementation
  • Scalable reconstrction tasks (spatiotemporal extent & resolution).
  • Processing result can be export to google drive as well as Assets for further analysis.
  • TO speed up the exporting and downloading, one can choose to export final harmonic coefficient and then construct final image series in local PC.
Grapical User Interface  for HANTS-GEE

Figure 2. Pixel-level time series reconstruciton with HANTS-GEE. Gray dots represent quality assessment (QA) value for observation (MODIS-NDVI: 0- Good Data, 1- Marginal Data, 2- Snow/Ice, 3- Cloudy. Red squres indicate valid observations identified by HANTS-GEE and other observations are outliers.

Attentions:
  • If you want to export the result for large area with high spatial reolution and long-time series, better to seperate the region in different parts and export it one by one. Otherwise, it will take a long time to processing or even failed.
  • The maixum storage space provide by Google Drive with free account is 15 GB, please check your left space before exporting result.

Usage of the packages

The HANTS-GEE package is freely avaliable here (Latest update: 25/09/2024).
