Tutorial: Using Remotior Sensus in Copernicus JupyterLab

This is a tutorial about Remotior Sensus, a Python package that allows for the processing of remote sensing images and GIS data.

In particular, this tutorial describes the use of Remotior Sensus in Copernicus JupyterLab, which is a Jupyter Notebook service in a web-based environment, offering several tools for working with the Copernicus Data Space.
This service can be accessed at this link https://jupyterhub.dataspace.copernicus.eu after a free registration to the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem (CDSE).

The Jupyter Notebooks are available in 3 flavors: Small (2 CPU cores and 4GB RAM), Medium (2 CPU cores and 8GB RAM) and Large (4 CPU cores and 16GB RAM). As stated in the documentation, to ensure the fair use of resources by the CDSE users, it is recommended to start with the Small flavor and switch to a bigger only in case of issues with kernel crashing due to the lack of available memory.

Therefore, the Copernicus JupyterLab offers a great opportunity to use Copernicus data in a cloud environment. In this tutorial, we are going to see how to:
  • Download and preprocess Sentinel-2 images.
  • Create a BandSet and prepare a training input
  • Run a Random Forest classification
All the above steps are performed in the cloud. The classification output is saved in a persistent storage with 10GB of space and can be downloaded later.

You can download the Jupyter Notebook from this link ,

To use this Notebook, after logging in the Copernicus JupyterLab, click the button to upload a file. After uploading this Notebook file, open it and run using the "Geo science" kernel.

Following the output of the Notebook as illustration. Of course you are invited to run the Notebook directly.
