Parallel raster processing in Python with dask and rioxarray: a whole Sentinel-2 tile without running out of memory
Process large satellite rasters in Python with dask and rioxarray. Open eight full Sentinel-2 scenes lazily, choose a chunk size, inspect the task graph, watch CPU and memory with dask diagnostics, compare peak memory with eager NumPy, time chunk sizes and thread counts, and write a median NDVI GeoTIFF to disk chunk by chunk.
