Changes Summary

📝 Notebook 01 (Server)

Before: 14 cells (Load → Process → Save)
After: 9 cells (Load → Save only)

Removed	Reason
❌ Cloud masking	Move to local
❌ NDVI calculation	Move to local
❌ Fill NaN values	Move to local
❌ Monthly aggregation	Move to local
⚠️ S1 modified	Raw only, no aggregation

New flow:

Dask → S3 → Load S2 (monthly) → Load S1 → Save 2 NetCDF

Output:

data_for_training/
├─ sentinel2_raw.nc      (S2 thô)
├─ sentinel1_raw.nc      (S1 thô)
└─ train_data/           (training points)

📝 Notebook 02 (NEW - Local Processing)

Created: Completely new notebook with 11 cells

Flow:

Load NetCDF → Cloud mask → NDVI → Fill NaN → Aggregation → Train CNN → Evaluate → Save Model

Cells:

1. Import libraries
2. Load raw NetCDF
3. Cloud masking
4. NDVI calculation
5. Fill NaN values
6. Monthly aggregation
7. Load training data
8. Split train/val/test
9. Train PyTorch CNN
10. Evaluate model
11. Save model

Output:

model_cnn_pytorch_local.pth              (Model weights)
model_cnn_pytorch_local_checkpoint.pth   (Full checkpoint)

New 3-Step Workflow

① Server (10-20 min)

Notebook 01: Load S2 + S1 → Save RAW NetCDF
Output: 80-100 GB data
Task: I/O bound (download from S3)

② Local (30-60 min CPU / 10-15 min GPU)

Notebook 02: Process RAW → Train CNN
Output: Trained model (100 MB)
Task: Compute bound (cloud mask + NDVI + training)

③ Local (5-10 min)

Notebook 03: Apply model → Generate maps
Output: Classification maps (SHP/TIF)
Task: Prediction bound (inference on all pixels)

---

Advantages

✅ No more 403 TB OOM errors

• Server: Only loads (I/O), doesn't compute
• Local: Only computes, receives pre-loaded data

✅ Much faster on local

• Python on local: Can use GPU
• Server: No GPU overhead, focused on download

✅ Easy to debug & iterate

• All processing visible on local machine
• Can reprocess without touching server
• Can experiment with parameters easily

✅ Clear separation of concerns

• Server: Infrastructure task (data prep)
• Local: Science task (processing & ML)

Usage Instructions

Prerequisites

Server:
- Dask, Datacube, S3 access already configured
- 500 GB free space

Local:
- Python 3.8+
- PyTorch
- xarray, numpy, pandas, geopandas
- 100 GB free space (for raw data)
- GPU (optional but faster)

Run Step by Step

1️⃣ On Server (takes ~15-20 min):

jupyter notebook 01.prepare_data_on_server.ipynb
# Run all cells in order
# Wait for: ✅ Success! Shape: {'time': 396, ...}
# Output: data_for_training/ folder created

2️⃣ Download to Local (takes ~30-60 min):

# From local machine:
scp -r user@server:~/data_for_training ./

# Or use rsync/FTP (check bandwidth with server admin)

3️⃣ On Local (takes ~30-60 min on CPU):

jupyter notebook 02.process_and_train_local.ipynb
# Run all cells in order
# Watch training progress: epoch 1/50, epoch 2/50, ...
# Wait for: ✅ Test Accuracy: 0.XX
# Output: model_cnn_pytorch_local.pth created

4️⃣ On Local (takes ~5-10 min):

jupyter notebook 03.predict_CNN_PyTorch_local.ipynb
# Run all cells in order
# Output: Classification maps (SHP/TIF) created

What's the Same?

✓ Cloud masking logic (SCL band) - unchanged
✓ NDVI calculation formula - unchanged
✓ Fill NaN strategy (seasonal) - unchanged
✓ Aggregation method (monthly) - unchanged
✓ CNN architecture - unchanged
✓ Training hyperparameters - unchanged
✓ Prediction logic - unchanged

Only change: Where computation happens (server vs local)

Troubleshooting

Server issues:

• S3 access denied? → Check credentials in cell 2
• Load too slow? → Check bandwidth with vmstat
• Storage full? → Clear old files first

Local issues:

• File not found? → Verify data_for_training/ exists
• Out of memory? → Close other apps, reduce batch_size
• GPU not working? → Fallback to CPU (slower but works)
• Model accuracy low? → Increase epochs or check cloud masking

Download issues:

• SCP too slow? → Use rsync with compression
• Connection drops? → Use screen or tmux on server
