An open-source QGIS plugin for an end-to-end water quality remote sensing workflow, including modeling and mapping of parameters like chlorophyll-a and turbidity from satellite imagery.
The RS-WaterQuality Mapper is a comprehensive, open-source Python plugin for QGIS designed to democratize aquatic remote sensing. It provides a user-friendly, end-to-end workflow for monitoring inland water quality using satellite observations. Key functionalities include multi-sensor data ingestion, atmospheric correction, water masking, spectral index computation, machine learning-based modeling, and mapping of key indicators like chlorophyll-a and turbidity. The tool significantly lowers the technical barrier for water resource managers and researchers, bridging the gap between remote sensing science and practical water resource management.
