# GeoPre: Geospatial Data Processing Toolkit  
**GeoPre** is a Python library designed to streamline common geospatial data operations, offering a unified interface for handling raster and vector datasets. It simplifies preprocessing tasks essential for GIS analysis, machine learning workflows, and remote sensing applications.


### Key Features  
- **Data Scaling**:  
  - Normalization (Z-Score) and Min-Max scaling for raster bands.  
  - Prepares data for ML models while preserving geospatial metadata.  

- **CRS Management**:  
  - Retrieve and compare Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) across raster (Rasterio/Xarray) and vector (GeoPandas) datasets.  
  - Ensure consistency between datasets with automated CRS checks.  

- **Reprojection**:  
  - Reproject vector data (GeoDataFrames) and raster data (Rasterio/Xarray) to any target CRS.  
  - Supports EPSG codes, WKT, and Proj4 strings.  

- **No-Data Masking**:  
  - Handle missing values in raster datasets (NumPy/Xarray) with flexible masking.  
  - Integrates seamlessly with raster metadata for error-free workflows.  

- **Cloud Masking**:  
  - Identify and mask clouds in Sentinel-2 and Landsat imagery.  
  - Supports multiple methods: QA bands, scene classification layers (SCL), probability bands, and OmniCloudMask AI-based detection.  
  - Optionally mask cloud shadows for improved accuracy.  

- **Band Stacking**:  
  - Stack multiple raster bands from a folder into a single multi-band raster for analysis.  
  - Supports automatic band detection and resampling for different resolutions.  


### Supported Data Types  
- **Raster**: NumPy arrays, Rasterio `DatasetReader`, Xarray `DataArray` (via rioxarray).  
- **Vector**: GeoPandas `GeoDataFrame`.  


### Benefits of GeoPre  
- **Unified Workflow**: Eliminates boilerplate code by providing consistent functions for raster and vector data.  
- **Interoperability**: Bridges gaps between GeoPandas, Rasterio, and Xarray, ensuring smooth data transitions.  
- **Robust Error Handling**: Automatically detects CRS mismatches and missing metadata to prevent silent failures.  
- **Efficiency**: Optimized reprojection and masking operations reduce preprocessing time for large datasets.  
- **ML-Ready Outputs**: Scaling functions preserve data structure, making outputs directly usable in machine learning pipelines.  


Ideal for researchers and developers working with geospatial data, **GeoPre** enhances productivity by standardizing preprocessing steps and ensuring compatibility across diverse geospatial tools.


## Installation
Install the package by running the following command:
```bash
pip install geopre
```
This will automatically install all required dependencies.



## Usage
### 1. Data Scaling
#### `Z-Score Scaling`
**Description**:This method centers the data around zero by subtracting the mean and dividing by the standard deviation, which is useful for machine learning models sensitive to outliers 
and can standardize a band of pixel values for clustering/classification.

**Parameters**:
- data (numpy.ndarray): Input array to normalize.
        
**Returns**:
- numpy.ndarray: Standardized data with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.

#### `Min_Max_Scaling`
**Description**: This method scales the pixel values to a fixed range, typically [0, 1] or [-1, 1]. Ideal when you want to preserve the relative range of values. 
For GeoTIFF image values (e.g., 0 to 65535), scale them to [0, 1].

**Parameters**:
- data (numpy.ndarray): Input array to normalize.

**Returns**:
- numpy.ndarray: Scaled data with values between 0 and 1, or -1 and 1.
      
#### Example:
```python
import numpy as np
import geopre as gp

data = np.array([[10, 20, 30], [40, 50, 60]])
z_scaled = gp.Z_score_scaling(data)
minmax_scaled = gp.Min_Max_Scaling(data)
```

### 2. CRS Management

#### `get_crs`
**Description**: Retrieve CRS from geospatial data objects.

**Parameters**:
- data: GeoPandas GeoDataFrames (vector), Rasterio DatasetReaders (raster) or Xarray DataArrays with rio accessor (raster)

**Returns**:
- pyproj.CRS: Coordinate reference system or None if undefined

#### `compare_crs`
**Description**: Compare CRS between raster and vector datasets.

**Parameters**:
- raster_obj (DatasetReader/xarray.DataArray): Raster data source.
- vector_gdf (gpd.GeoDataFrame): Vector data source.
 
**Returns**:

**dict**: Comparison results with keys:
- raster_crs: Formatted CRS string
- vector_crs: Formatted CRS string  
- same_crs: Boolean comparison result
- error: Exception message if any

#### Example:
```python
import geopandas as gpd
import rasterio
import geopre as gp

vector = gpd.read_file("data.shp")
raster = rasterio.open("image.tif")

print(gp.get_crs(vector))  # EPSG:4326
print(gp.compare_crs(raster, vector))  # CRS comparison results
```

### 3. Reprojection
#### `reproject_data`
**Description**: Reproject geospatial data to target CRS.

**Parameters**:
- data: GeoDataFrames (vector reprojection), or Rasterio datasets (returns array + metadata), or Xarray objects (rioxarray reprojection) 
- target_crs: CRS to reproject to (EPSG code/WKT/proj4 string)

**Returns**:
- Reprojected data in format matching input type

#### Example:
```python
import rasterio
import xarray as xr
import geopre as gp

# Vector reprojection
reprojected_vector = gp.reproject_data(vector, "EPSG:3857")

# Raster reprojection (Rasterio)
with rasterio.open("input.tif") as src:
    array, metadata = gp.reproject_data(src, "EPSG:32633")

# Xarray reprojection
da = xr.open_rasterio("image.tif")
reprojected_da = gp.reproject_data(da, "EPSG:4326")
```

### 4. No-Data Masking
#### `mask_raster_data`
**Description**: Mask no-data values in raster datasets. Handles both rasterio (numpy) and rioxarray (xarray) workflows.

**Parameters**:
- data: Raster data (numpy.ndarray or xarray.DataArray)
- profile: Rasterio metadata dict (required for numpy arrays)
- no_data_value: Override for metadata's nodata value
- return_mask: Whether to return boolean mask

**Returns**:
- Masked data array. For numpy inputs, returns tuple:(masked_array, profile). For xarray, returns DataArray.

#### Example:
```python
import xarray as xr
import rasterio
import geopre as gp

# Rasterio workflow
with rasterio.open("data.tif") as src:
    data = src.read(1)
    masked, profile = gp.mask_raster_data(data, src.profile)

# rioxarray workflow
da = xr.open_rasterio("data.tif")
masked_da = gp.mask_raster_data(da)
```
