name=WaterQual
qgisMinimumVersion=3.0
description=Sentinel-2 water quality monitoring for lakes, reservoirs, and other inland/coastal waterbodies — chlorophyll-a and turbidity proxies (NDCI, NDTI) plus calibrated chlorophyll-a estimators (OC3, Gilerson), no account or API key required.
version=0.1.1
author=Ilias Machairas, Ashish Kuruvila
email=iliasmachairas@outlook.com

about=Searches Microsoft Planetary Computer for the least-cloudy Sentinel-2 L2A scene over a waterbody and date you choose, masks clouds/shadows and non-water pixels, and computes one of four water-quality algorithms: NDCI (unitless chlorophyll-a proxy), NDTI (unitless turbidity proxy), OC3 (calibrated chlorophyll-a for clear water), or Gilerson (calibrated chlorophyll-a for turbid water). Works on lakes, reservoirs, ponds, and other water surfaces large enough for a stable sample at Sentinel-2's 10m resolution. Saves a georeferenced index GeoTIFF plus a report with summary statistics, and can optionally also save the raw RGB+NIR+SWIR imagery alongside it for visual monitoring. No sign-in or API key needed — Sentinel-2 is in Planetary Computer's open, public collection tier.

changelog=0.1.1
    - Fixed a flake8 F821 error (undefined name 'standard_library') in plugin_upload.py, flagged by the QGIS plugin repo's code quality check.
    0.1.0
    - First release.
    - Four water-quality algorithms over Sentinel-2 L2A: NDCI and NDTI (quick unitless chlorophyll-a/turbidity proxies) plus OC3 and Gilerson (calibrated chlorophyll-a estimators for clear vs. turbid water), restricted to water pixels via the SCL band, with an optional raw RGB+NIR+SWIR companion GeoTIFF for visual monitoring.
    - Cloud/shadow masking and cloud-percentage thresholds moved into a collapsed "Advanced masking options" panel with sane defaults.
    - Area of interest by drawing a rectangle on the map or from an existing polygon layer.
