Example Notebooks for Accessing OpenTopography's SpatioTemporal Asset Catalog (STAC). Designed to run directly in Google Colab.
OT_STAC_Simple.ipynb - This simple notebook demonstrates how to query the OpenTopography Raster STAC catalog for DEM datasets within a specified area, filter the results, and create hillshade overlays on an interactive map. It also manages geospatial metadata and projection details to ensure accurate terrain visualization.
OT_STAC_Interactive.ipynb - This notebook demonstrates how to access the OpenTopography Raster STAC catalog using a map interface to search for datasets, inspect metadata, and filter results interactively. It also shows how to load selected assets into analysis-ready data structures for plotting and further geospatial processing directly within the notebook.
