# Google Earth Engine plugin for QGIS



Integrates Google Earth Engine with QGIS using Python API. 



Check [User Guide](https://gee-community.github.io/qgis-earthengine-plugin/) to get started or ask general questions and comments in the [Discussion](https://github.com/gee-community/qgis-earthengine-plugin/discussions) section.

### Troubleshooting



#### How to reset your authentication settings?



Install the Google Earth Engine [command line client](https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/command_line). Run the `earthengine authenticate` command. This resets the authentication credentials and solves most authentication errors.



An alternative is to delete the credentials file and re-authenticate the plugin by restarting the QGIS. 



The credentials file is located in:



```

Windows: C:\Users\\.config\earthengine\credentials 

Linux: /home//.config/earthengine/credentials 

MacOS: /Users//.config/earthengine/credentials

```



More about EE authentication guide and troubleshooting [here](https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/guides/auth).



#### Are you through a proxy?



In your scripts, configure proxy settings on top of them:



```python

import os

os.environ['HTTP_PROXY'] = 'http://[username:password@]:'

os.environ['HTTPS_PROXY'] = 'http://[username:password@]:'



import ee

from ee_plugin import Map

```



#### I am getting error like ssl.SSLError: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed on MacOS:



Open Finder and double clicking on this file `/Applications/Python 3.6/Install Certificates.command`. This path may vary depending on how QGIS was installed (Homebrew, macports, native). Then restart QGIS. 



#### Plugin crashes after authentication with a stack trace showing 404, what should I do?



Go to http://code.earthengine.google.com and make sure you can access code editor. If the plugin is still failing - make sure your IP is not under firewall.

#### Alpha 0.0.2 (Q3 2020) :heavy_check_mark:

- [x] Upgrade EE library to 0.1.224 (Windows, Linux, maxOS)



#### Alpha 0.0.3 (Q4 2020) :heavy_check_mark:

- [x] EE raster layer inspector

- [x] Show some useful EE properties (bands, value types) in QGIS layer properties dialog

- [x] Fix EE url authentication function if the credentials is not exists [#63](https://github.com/gee-community/qgis-earthengine-plugin/issues/63)

- [x] Fix crash if the authentication dialog is cancelled or not filled by the user

- [x] Init the Google Earth Engine user authorization system only when the user is going to use the plugin

- [x] Fixed the authentication dialog when the url shortener doesn't work by any reason [#66](https://github.com/gee-community/qgis-earthengine-plugin/issues/66)

- [x] Fix loading extra python dependencies to the plugin, fix [#62](https://github.com/gee-community/qgis-earthengine-plugin/issues/62)



#### Alpha 0.0.4 (Q1 2021) :heavy_check_mark:

- [x] Minor bugfix release (EE authentication)



#### Alpha 0.0.5 (Q1 2022) :heavy_check_mark:

- [x] Minor bugfix release (EE library upgrade)



#### Alpha 0.0.6 (Q1 2023) :heavy_check_mark:

- [x] Added support for QGIS 3.22+ (fix identify tool)



#### 1.0.0 (Q4 2023) :hourglass:

- [ ] Improve authentication (UI and error handling)

- [ ] Simplify interpoerability of features/geometry between EE and QGIS

- [ ] Add layer as a child layer to the group layer [#101](https://github.com/gee-community/qgis-earthengine-plugin/issues/101)

- [ ] EE vector layer inspector

- [ ] EE raster collection layer inspector

- [ ] Make print(ee_object) more user-friendly, without requiring getInfo(), maybe async

- [ ] Get Link and Open Script

- [ ] Skip import ee and from ee_plugin import Map for EE scripts

...



#### 1.1.0

- [ ] Export.* and Tasks panel (start, cancel, info)

- [ ] Map.layers() for EE layers, allowing to use things like ui.Map.Layer.setEeObject()

- [ ] ui.Chart.*

- [ ] require()

- [ ] Faster identify tool, using local cached rasters

- [ ] Add support for Data Catalog, allowing adding assets without the need to write scripts (select time, styling)

- [ ] Custom EE scripts as Processing algorithms, so that users can use it within Graphical Modeller

- [ ] Fetch (cache?) raster assets locally (EE > QGIS), for a given rectangle / CRS, as a Processing tool

- [ ] Export vector and raster data (QGIS > EE) either via Tasks or some other way

- [ ] Use QGIS vector/raster style editors to edit EE layer styles
