eerepr

Add interactive Code Editor-style HTML reprs to Earth Engine objects in a Jupyter environment.

Setup

[!TIP] eerepr is pre-installed in Google Colab!

Install from PyPI:

$ pip install eerepr

Install from Conda-Forge:

$ conda install -c conda-forge eerepr

Usage

Activating eerepr

import eerepr

eerepr.initialize()

Running eerepr.initialize adds an HTML repr method to all Earth Engine objects. When you print them in an IPython environment, you'll see an interactive HTML repr instead of a boring old string repr. Simple as that!

[!TIP] If you're using geemap>=0.35.2, eerepr is automatically imported and initialized.

Manually Rendering Objects

Jupyter only automatically displays the last object in a cell. To manually render an HTML repr anywhere in a code block, use IPython.display.display.

from IPython.display import display
import ee
import eerepr

ee.Initialize()
eerepr.initialize()

display(ee.FeatureCollection("LARSE/GEDI/GEDI02_A_002_INDEX").limit(3))

Configuration

eerepr.initialize takes a number of configuration options:

• max_repr_mbs: When an HTML repr exceeds this size (default 100 MBs), the string repr will be displayed instead to avoid freezing the notebook.
• max_cache_size: The maximum number of Earth Engine objects to cache. Using None (default) is recommended unless memory is very limited or the object is likely to change, e.g. getting the most recent image from a near-real-time collection. Caching can be disabled by setting to 0.
• on_error: When an object can't be retrieved from Earth Engine, either warn (default) or raise.
