iCalendar: Satellite-based Field Map Calendar

GUI-based software coded in PYTHON to promote throughput image processing and analytics of a big dataset of satellite imagery and provide spatiotemporal monitoring of crop health conditions throughout the growing season by automatically illustrating 1) a field map calendar (FMC) with daily thumbnails of vegetation heatmaps in each month and 2) a seasonal Vegetation Index (VI) Profile of the crop fields. Output examples of FMC and VI Profile are found in files named in fmCalendar.jpg and NDVI_Profile.jpg, respectively, which were created satellite imagery on 5/1-10/31 in 2020 from a sugarbeet field in Moorhead, MN.本软件为基于图形用户界面（Graphical User Interface，GUI）、采用Python编写的程序，旨在提升海量卫星影像数据集的图像处理与分析效率，并通过自动生成两类可视化成果实现作物全生育期健康状况的时空监测：1）田间地图日历（Field Map Calendar，FMC），每月包含各日植被热图的缩略图；2）作物田块的季节植被指数（Vegetation Index，VI）剖面曲线。FMC与VI剖面的输出示例分别存储于fmCalendar.jpg与NDVI_Profile.jpg文件中，两份示例均由美国明尼苏达州穆尔黑德市某甜菜田2020年5月1日至10月31日的卫星影像生成。
