Environmental monitoring demands the ability to process vast quantities of satellite imagery, sensor data, and spatial boundaries to track changes across ecosystems, coastlines, and urban areas. The examples below show how to work with earth observation data in Wherobots.

​
Examples

Change Detection

Run a model over satellite imagery from two dates with RasterFlow.

Severe Weather Data

Load NOAA Severe Weather Data Inventory records, such as hail signatures and storm cells, and analyze them with Spatial SQL.

Land Cover Data

Explore ESA WorldCover land cover rasters and combine them with your own boundaries.

Coastal & Flood Exposure Mapping

Quantify what sits inside coastal wave zones and 100- and 500-year floodplains by joining FEMA flood hazard layers with parcel, land use, and building data.

​
Key Capabilities

Use RasterFlow to run change detection models across satellite imagery from two dates, such as two years. The example notebook shows the two-date workflow with the Fields of the World model, which segments field boundaries rather than detecting change. To measure change, run a change detection model, such as one you export with the Bring Your Own Model notebook.

Change detection with RasterFlow

Run a model over imagery from two dates.
Analyze ESA WorldCover, a global 10 meter land cover classification, for any region, and calculate area statistics by zone, watershed, or administrative boundary.

Exploring ESA WorldCover

Explore global 10 m land cover classes from ESA WorldCover.
Estimate canopy height from aerial imagery with RasterFlow’s canopy height model.

Estimating canopy height

Predict tree heights from aerial imagery.
Build spatially aligned mosaics from built-in Sentinel-2 or NAIP imagery across an area of interest and a time window, then run inference or index calculations over the result.

Building Sentinel-2 mosaics

Assemble cloud-free imagery across an area and a season.

Building NAIP mosaics

Assemble sub-meter aerial imagery over your study area.
Read STAC-compliant earth observation catalogs directly into WherobotsDB. Query, filter, and process satellite imagery collections without downloading files.

STAC reader and API

Search and load imagery collections without moving files.
