Hi there,

I am just trying to use the stratified area estimator....but have failed at the first hurdle - uploading a map to the SEPAL workspace that can be used to generate the sample points. I have seen that you can use a test dataset (congo)...but I would like to use my dataset based in Burkina Faso. I have the shapefile in zip format but I cannot find out how to upload it.

Apologies in advance for being daft and missing something!

Dear Becky,

Thanks for your interest.

There are several ways to upload your own map.

1 via direct manual upload

If you zipped the shapefile you can directly upload by opening the Rstudio server under Process and use the upload button (bottom right panel). Illustrated here: https://github.com/openforis/accuracy-assessment/blob/master/presentations/p_sae_design.pdf

You can do the same from the Jupyter server under Process

2 via FTP manager

A more long term solution to upload and download files to/from SEPAL is to use a FTP manager such as FileZilla.

Go to File / Site manager

Open a NEW SITE

Then set parameters as follows: HOST: sepal.io PROTOCOL: SFTP-SSH File Transfer Protocol PORT: 443 LOGON: Ask for password User: your_sepal_username

Click Connect and you will have an interface between your desktop and your SEPAL environment

Hope it helps, let me know

Best

Great Rémi, thank you. I used the Rstudio server approach. Thank you for your response.

To update Remi's answer, the parameters for connecting SEPAL to FileZilla have slightly changed. The host site is now: ssh.sepal.io. All the other parameters and instructions remain the same. For updated instructions on how to connect SEPAL to FileZila checkthese instructions.
