[Landsat-pds] Converting MTL.txt to JSON

[Sundwall, Jed]

+1 to putting them into the directory with the TIFFs.

Jeff,

This looks good to me.  I'd suggest we drop these in the same directory as the MTL txt files, and just name them .json.

eg.
LC80150252015005LGN00_B4.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B10.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B5.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B2.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B9.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B1.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B7.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B8.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B11.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B3.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_BQA.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_B6.TIF
LC80150252015005LGN00_MTL.txt
LC80150252015005LGN00_MTL.json

It might be nice to have the mimetype set properly for json too.

With regard to putting them all in one place, the downside I see to that is they aren't as likely to be noticed by folks who have maneuvered to a scene.  The scene_list.gz file already has the links to each scene directory for folks who need a directory-in-a-file.

Best regards,
Frank

Hello everyone,

I just joined the mailing list and I’m working with Jed from AWS (I work for AWS as well). The first project I did was write a simple Python tool to convert the MTL.txt files to JSON. I’m attaching a sample MTL file and the resulting JSON. Let me know what you think!

Thanks!

Jeff
