<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div>Dear all,<br></div>I am working on a module to extract the phenological parameters (like timesat) from a time series implemented in python/cython and making use of gscript and other grass stuff.<br></div>It works great on a 256x256 and as the plan is applying it over Australia at 250m over 17 years, I need to split the process in small tiles.
