Function used to create virtual files from time series of single-band files corresponding to different acquisition dates

MODIStsp_vrt_create(out_prod_folder, meta_band, file_prefixes, sens_sel,
  ts_format, nodata_value, out_format, rts)

Arguments

out_prod_folder

string main output folder

meta_band

string "name" of the band (or SI, or QI) for which the virtual file is to be created

file_prefixes

string file_prefixes for TERRA and AQUA - used to identify the files corresponding to each sensor

sens_sel

string name of the sensor for which the time series has to be created (Aqua, Terra, Mixed) If "Mixed" and both TERRA and AQUA images are available, a "mixed" virtual file comprising data from both sensors ordered on DOY base is created

ts_format

string required output format for virtual file (ENVI, GDAL, Both)

nodata_value

string NoData value to be used for vrt files (equal to NoData value of inputs)

out_format

format of images used as "input" for the vrt and contained in out_prod_folder/band folders (ENVI or GTiff)

rts

string ("Yes"/"No") If Yes, create rts time series

Value

NULL - virtual files are stored in the "Time Series" subfolder of out_prod_folder

Details

The function takes as input the folder in which the single-band files are stored, and creates a ENVI Meta file and/or a GDAL vrt file that allows access to the full time series as if it was a single physical file
