Hello Manswini,
Hello Regina,
I have read your e-mails with great interest. Many of the described
problems seem familiar to me. I have been working with temporally and
spatially resolved (weather) raster data for over 10 years.
Here are a few comments and recommendations:
1. After some missteps I stopped using multiband-raster. Why?
- What happens if individual days (or hours) are missing?
- Can I always trust the order of the bands?
2. I work with 1-band grids. My database structure looks like this:
[image: image.png]
3. The import is using raster2pgsql. Here is snippet:
def raster2pgsql(outGtiffPath, dbSchema, dbTable, dbHost=conf.dbHost,
> dbPort=conf.dbPort, dbName=conf.dbName, dbUser=conf.dbUser):
> try:
> tableNotEmptySQL = f"SELECT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM
> {dbSchema}.{dbTable} LIMIT 1);"
> if executeSQL(tableNotEmptySQL, fetchone=True):
> cmd = f"raster2pgsql -a -F -n filename -s 4326 {outGtiffPath}
> {dbSchema}.{dbTable} | psql -h {dbHost} -p {dbPort} -d {dbName} -U {dbUser}"
> else:
> cmd = f"raster2pgsql -a -C -F -n filename -s 4326
> {outGtiffPath} {dbSchema}.{dbTable} | psql -h {dbHost} -p {dbPort} -d
> {dbName} -U {dbUser}"
> subprocess.call(cmd, shell=True)
> return True
> except Exception as e:
> print(f"Importing '{outGtiffPath}' to postgres db failed.")
> print(f"{e}\n")
> with open(conf.failedRaster2pgsql, 'a') as file:
> file.write(f"{datetime.now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d
> %X')}\t{outGtiffPath}\t{e}\n")
> return False
4. I read the parameters "scale" and "offset" via Python and write them to
the database.
hourlyRaster = gdal.Open(str(outGtiffPath))
> hourlyRasterScale = hourlyRaster.GetRasterBand(1).GetScale()
> hourlyRasterOffset = hourlyRaster.GetRasterBand(1).GetOffset()
> hourlyRaster = None
> insertTimestampSQL = f"SET TIMEZONE = 'UTC'; UPDATE
> {dataset}.{dbTable} SET timestamp_w_tz = TO_TIMESTAMP('{timeStamp}',
> 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI'), rast_scale_factor = {hourlyRasterScale}, rast_offset
> = {hourlyRasterOffset} WHERE filename = '{outGtiff}';"
5. The query:
select timestamp_w_tz
> , st_value(rast, st_setsrid(st_makepoint(15, 50), 4326)) * rast_scale_factor
> + rast_offset as value_temperature
> from era5.temperature_2m
> where timestamp_w_tz >= '1982-09-18 00:00'
> and timestamp_w_tz < '1982-09-19 00:00'
>
6. The result (temperature in Kelvin. Of course.)

I know that my example does not match your problem 100%. It is also
time-consuming for you to establish the 1-band grid approach. It requires
you to change your database structure. Sorry about that.
Hopefully the comments will help you. You are also welcome to contact me
personally.
Best regards

>> In case this information is useful: Previously I used python to extract variable information and generate a csv or table using this variable information, and the code is enclosed below. In the code I extracted variable values using lon = dataset.variables['lon'][:] and iterated for loops to write them all in csv.
