I want to download the entire tiff of the city London. Since there is a limit size of Bbox, so I split the shape to 9 sub-bbox, and use wms request approach to download all of them.
The problem is that the tiffs I download are not so good as I expected.
you can see that there are gaps and white boarders around some tiffs.
Here is my scripts:
london = gpd.read_file(shpPath)
london_crs = CRS.UTM_30N
london = london.to_crs(crs={‘init’: CRS.ogc_string(london_crs)})
london_shape = london.geometry.values.tolist()[-1]
bbox_splitter = BBoxSplitter([london_shape], london_crs, (3, 3))
bbox_list = np.array(bbox_splitter.get_bbox_list())
wms_true_color_request =
WmsRequest(data_folder=‘/Users/guoqiushi/Documents/test_dir_tiff’,
layer=‘TRUE-COLOR-S2-L1C’,
bbox=bbox_list[8],
time=‘latest’,
width=512, height=856,
image_format=MimeType.TIFF,
instance_id=INSTANCE_ID)
wms_true_color_request.save_data()
colud anyone help me to find out where bugs are?

Hello!
To help you debug we would need the shapefile you are using. What spatial resolution would you like to retrieve?
If for example you wanted pixels with a spatial resolution of 60metres, you could use WCS requests:
london = gpd.read_file(shpPath)
london_crs = CRS.UTM_30N
london = london.to_crs(crs={‘init’: CRS.ogc_string(london_crs)})
london_shape = london.geometry.values.tolist()[-1]
bbox_splitter = BBoxSplitter([london_shape], london_crs, (3, 3))
bbox_list = bbox_splitter.get_bbox_list()
wcs_true_color_request = WcsRequest(data_folder=’/Users/guoqiushi/Documents/test_dir_tiff’, layer=‘TRUE-COLOR-S2-L1C’,
bbox=bbox_list[8],
time=‘latest’,
resx='60m', resy='60m',
image_format=MimeType.TIFF,
instance_id=INSTANCE_ID)
wcs_true_color_request.save_data()
The service can return images with maximum size 5000x5000 pixels, so you need to be careful not to request images larger than that.
Hello, Devis!
Thanks for your reply! I follow your advice and used wcs_request to download the tif. To guarantee the bbox size not exceed the 50000 pixel, I split the shape into 100 sub-bbox.
But there are still bugs:
It would be nice if you could debug it to find what’s the reason of it.
shapefile
This is the shape file of london, in the folder qg_shapefile.
I cannot access the shapefile, perhaps you did not make the folder public on the store.
