ARC-SCOPE

Bridge ARC crop-state retrieval with SCOPE canopy radiative-transfer simulation for real field-season experiments.

Open the real full run Quick start Installation

What is real here

The primary showcase path is a real ARC retrieval for the bundled Belgium field in 2021, paired with real forcing, real observation geometry, saved SCOPE outputs, and an interactive explorer generated from the run artifacts.

What is checked into the site

The GitHub Pages bundle is a compact interactive slice of that real run: the explorer payload is downsampled for responsiveness, while the figure suite and CSV inventories still come from the saved experiment outputs.

What is lightweight

The core showcase keeps a dependency-light path for users who want to understand the bridge, weather alignment, radiation partitioning, and optimization mechanics without installing ARC or SCOPE.

  • Real Full Run

    Walk from real retrieval to simulation, then inspect pixel/date/band/spectrum behaviour in the interactive explorer across reflectance, SIF, and thermal outputs.

  • Core Showcase

    Explore the repo-native walkthrough with bundled weather, synthetic ARC-like inputs, and proxy optimization.

  • Build Your Own

    Start from the bridge and pipeline APIs if you want your own field boundary, weather source, or experiment settings.

Why ARC-SCOPE Exists

  • Model stage 1: retrieval

    ARC reconstructs crop biophysical state from Sentinel-2 acquisitions over a real field and date range.

  • Model stage 2: forcing

    Weather and observation geometry provide the atmospheric and sun-sensor state needed for physically grounded forward simulation.

  • Model stage 3: simulation

    SCOPE turns the retrieved crop state into reflectance, SIF, and thermal-oriented outputs that can be inspected as seasonal trajectories, spectra, and spatial maps.

Choose A Path

Use this when you want the full validated story:

  • real ARC retrieval
  • real forcing and observation geometry
  • saved SCOPE outputs plus interactive explorer
  • figure-rich docs assets and report metadata
pixi install
pixi run fetch-scope-upstream
pixi run check-runtime
pixi run real-experiment-docs

Use this when you want fast onboarding without the heavy dependencies:

  • no ARC install
  • no SCOPE install
  • bundled local weather
  • direct bridge and optimization surfaces
pip install arcope
python3 -m arc_scope.experiments.showcase --output-dir ./showcase-output

At A Glance

  • Primary validated scenario

    Belgium/Flanders test field, wheat crop type, 2021 growing season, real ARC retrieval, then reflectance, fluorescence, and thermal outputs with an explorer generated from the run bundle.

  • Checked-in docs bundle

    The docs ship the generated figure set and a compact explorer payload from the real run, so GitHub Pages stays small and fast without pretending the browser layer is the full-resolution artifact.

  • Material site features

    This site uses Material navigation, buttons, tabs, icons, admonitions, and figure galleries instead of plain Markdown-only pages.
