Search

Args:

bbox (str):

A bbox (bounding box) is a rectangular feature that will encompass a desired Area Of Interest (AOI). The format is miny,minx,maxy,maxx (minimum y coordinate, minimum x coordinate, maximum y coordinate, maximum y coordinate). Must be in projection EPSG:4326

Example:

 interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912")

srsname (str):

The desired projection. Defaults to "EPSG:4326".

Example:

interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", srsname="EPSG:3857")

filter (str):

A filter is a CQL filter using Common Query Language to refine data of search. Further CQL parameters accepted by Maxar can be found here: Filters

Examples:

 interface.search(filter="(acquisitionDate>='2022-01-01')")

 interface.search(filter="(acquisitionDate>='2022-01-01')AND(cloudCover<0.20)")

 interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", filter="(acquisitionDate>='2022-01-01')AND(cloudCover<0.20)")

  • If a bbox is desired, the bbox string is an argument separate from the filter string. This bbox must be in EPSG:4326. Search parameters must be wrapped in parentheses within the filter string

shapefile (bool):

Boolean to determine if results are returned in a shapefile format

Example:

 interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", shapefile=True)

csv (bool):

Boolean to determine if results are returned in a csv format.

Example:

 interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", csv=True)

Kwargs:

featureprofile (str):

A featureprofile, or stacking profile, is defined based upon the attributes that are most important to the user. The stacking profile is used to assemble the features into a mosaic that best satisfies the desired preference. If a profile is not specified, it will default to Default_Profile. A list of available stacking profiles can be found here: Stacking Profiles

Example:

  interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", featureprofile='Cloud_Cover_Profile')

typename (str):

The typename of the desired feature type. Available feature types can be found here: Feature Types

Example:

 interface.search(bbox="39.7530, -104.9962, 39.7580, -104.9912", typename="MaxarCatalogMosaicProducts")
