Can I run fmask on tiff files? about python-fmask HOT 2 CLOSED

Python-fmask also needs access to a couple of XML metadata files which are normally supplied with the full data bundle (known as a SAFE file). In principle you might get hold of those XML files, and combine those with the .tiff files you have, and be able to run, but you would need to know quite a bit about the details.

So, my suggestion is that you start by acquiring SAFE files from https://scihub.copernicus.eu/. These are just zip files, and once you unzip one, you will have a SAFE directory, which you can give to the --safedir option on the python-fmask command line.

Once you are more familiar with the details, you might then revisit your plan to get the data from WcsRequest, if you are also able to source the metadata as well as the tiff files.

Alright, thank for point me out in the right direction! I will get more familiar with the SAFE structure before trying other formats.

I am also closing the issue. :)
