Massive Operations on Rasters with QGIS and Python - Tutorial

There are new available tools and resources to understand climate change, land use dynamics, water cycle and other parts of our physical environment. Many spatial data come on raster format and are available on web servers, those servers have a image register every year, every month, every day, hour, half hour or minute. If we want to assess a physical phenomena we have to be able to analyze large set of data.

Traditional GIS approach and tools were focussed in performing a spatial algorithm on a single layer or a small group of layers, however, we need to develop and use tools to increase our data manipulation capabilities to undefined number of layers; afortunately this can be done on the same QGIS software with Python console.
