tasseledCap

geetools.ee_image_collection.ImageCollectionAccessor.tasseledCap()

Calculates tasseled cap brightness, wetness, and greenness components for all images in the collection.

Tasseled cap transformations are applied using coefficients published for these supported platforms:

• Sentinel-2 MSI Level 1C [1]

• Landsat 9 OLI-2 SR [2]

• Landsat 9 OLI-2 TOA [2]

• Landsat 8 OLI SR [2]

• Landsat 8 OLI TOA [2]

• Landsat 7 ETM+ TOA [3]

• Landsat 5 TM Raw DN [4]

• Landsat 4 TM Raw DN [5]

• Landsat 4 TM Surface Reflectance [6]

• MODIS NBAR [7]

Parameters:

self – ee.ImageCollection to calculate tasseled cap components for. Must belong to a supported platform.

Returns:

Image Collections with the tasseled cap components as new bands.

Return type:

ee.ImageCollection
