RH 95 metric

by rdaisatusq » Sun May 21, 2023 8:40 am America/New_York

Hi everyone, I am following the python workflow found in this link (https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/resources/e-learning/getting-started-gedi-l2a-version-2-data-python/) to extract Rh metric to my study area.

I am on section "6.Spatial Visualization", particularly:

# Set up lists to store data
shotNum, dem, zElevation, zHigh, zLat, zLon, rh25, rh98, rh100 ,quality ,degrade, sensitivity ,beamI, selectedAlgorithm = ([] for i in range(14))


# Loop through each beam and open the SDS needed
for b in beamNames:
[shotNum.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/shot_number') and b in g][0]][()]]
[dem.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/digital_elevation_model') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zElevation.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/elev_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zHigh.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/elev_highestreturn') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zLat.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/lat_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zLon.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/lon_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[rh25.append(h[25]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
[rh98.append(h[98]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
[rh100.append(h[100]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
[quality.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/quality_flag') and b in g][0]][()]]
[degrade.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/degrade_flag') and b in g][0]][()]]
[sensitivity.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/sensitivity') and b in g][0]][()]]
[beamI.append(h) for h in [b] * len(gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/shot_number') and b in g][0]][()])]
[selectedAlgorithm.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/selected_algorithm') and b in g][0]][()]]

I actually would like to add the relative metric (rh) 95. By adding the following rh95 in the codes (shown below):

# Set up lists to store data shotNum, dem, zElevation, zHigh, zLat, zLon, rh25, rh95, rh98, rh100 ,quality ,degrade, sensitivity ,beamI, selectedAlgorithm = ([] for i in range(15))

# Loop through each beam and open the SDS needed for b in beamNames:
[shotNum.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/shot_number') and b in g][0]][()]]
[dem.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/digital_elevation_model') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zElevation.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/elev_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zHigh.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/elev_highestreturn') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zLat.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/lat_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[zLon.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/lon_lowestmode') and b in g][0]][()]]
[rh25.append(h[25]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
   [rh95.append(h[95]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
   [rh98.append(h[98]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
[rh100.append(h[100]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]
[quality.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/quality_flag') and b in g][0]][()]]
[degrade.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/degrade_flag') and b in g][0]][()]]
[sensitivity.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/sensitivity') and b in g][0]][()]]
[beamI.append(h) for h in [b] * len(gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/shot_number') and b in g][0]][()])]
[selectedAlgorithm.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/selected_algorithm') and b in g][0]][()]]

Unfortunately I am getting the below error:

Hopefully the helpful community could give me some directions to also extract RH 95 in my .h5 data.

Many thanks!

Cheers!

Your code looks good. make sure you restart your notebook. If you run any variables outside of a loop before setting it to an empty list, the outputs will be appended to the existing one. That is why when you want to create a dataframe they have different dimensions/lengths.
example of the error you are experiencing:
shotNum, rh95= ([] for i in range(2))
run the first loop once and the other one twice.
for b in beamNames:
[shotNum.append(h) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/shot_number') and b in g][0]][()]]
for b in beamNames:
[rh95.append(h[95]) for h in gediL2A[[g for g in gediSDS if g.endswith('/rh') and b in g][0]][()]]

Now, if you run the code below to create the pandas dataframe, `rh95` and `shotNum`, it will fail because you are trying to make a table with columns of different length.

allDF = pd.DataFrame({
'Shot Number': shotNum,
'RH 95': rh95,
})

Please let us know if you are still having issue adding Rh95 to your list.

Thanks,
Mahsa
