## Overview

Landsat8.earth is an application to explore [Landsat 8][landsat8] imagery in the
browser using [WebGL][webgl] (via [deck.gl][deck.gl]).

The backend runs on AWS Lambda and is powered by [Cloud-Optimized
GeoTIFFs][cogeo], a fast cloud-native file format that enables streaming
portions of raster images. It draws from the huge repository of Landsat 8 data
[publicly available on S3][landsat8-aws], thanks to the AWS Open Data program.

- [`landsat-mosaic-tiler`][landsat-mosaic-tiler] is the backend; a Python
application running on AWS Lambda, and serves Landsat imagery on demand.
- [`landsat-cogeo-mosaic`][landsat-cogeo-mosaic] is used to pregenerate mosaics
(collections) of Landsat images, enabling a visualization of many images at
once.
- [`landsat-mosaic-latest`][landsat-mosaic-latest] keeps an updated Landsat
mosaic, allowing for the option of viewing the latest available imagery.
- [`deck.gl-raster`][deck.gl-raster] handles the analysis of Landsat data in WebGL.
