collection_formats {gdalcubes} | R Documentation

## List predefined image collection formats

### Description

gdalcubes comes with some predefined collection formats e.g. to scan Sentinel 2 data. This function lists available formats including brief descriptions.

### Usage

    collection_formats(print = TRUE)

### Arguments

`print` | logical; should available formats and their descriptions be printed nicely, defaults to TRUE

### Details

Image collection formats define how individual files / GDAL datasets relate to an image collection, i.e., which bands they contain, to which image they belong, and how to derive aquisition date/time. They are described as a set of regular expressions in a JSON file and used by gdalcubes to extract this information from the paths and/or filenames.

### Value

data.frame with columns `name` and `description` where the former describes the unique identifier that can be used in `create_image_collection` and the latter gives a brief description of the format.

### Examples

    collection_formats()
