GeoTIFF Tile Layer#

The GeoTIFFTileLayer class in ipyopenlayers provides a way to display GeoTIFF files on your map. GeoTIFF is a format for raster graphics that includes georeferencing information, which makes it ideal for displaying satellite imagery and other geospatial raster data.

The GeoTIFFTileLayer class leverages WebGL for rendering, allowing for efficient handling of large raster datasets.

Key Features#

GeoTIFF Support: Easily integrate GeoTIFF files into your map.
WebGL Rendering: Utilizes WebGL for efficient rendering of large raster datasets.
Dynamic Updates: Update the layer dynamically by changing the URL.

Example#

Below is an example of how to use the GeoTIFFTileLayer class to add a GeoTIFF layer to your map:

 from ipyopenlayers import Map, GeoTIFFTileLayer,RasterTileLayer

 # Create a map centered at the specified coordinates with a zoom level of 9
 m = Map(center=[5.314329221346643, 16.3625002926901], zoom=9)

 # Add layer
layer=RasterTileLayer()
m.add_layer(layer)

 # Create and add a GeoTIFFTileLayer to the map
 geo_tiff_layer = GeoTIFFTileLayer(url='https://sentinel-cogs.s3.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/sentinel-s2-l2a-cogs/36/Q/WD/2020/7/S2A_36QWD_20200701_0_L2A/TCI.tif')
 m.add_layer(geo_tiff_layer)

 # Display the map
 m
