Welcome to the TorchGeo Hugging Face community!

TorchGeo uses Hugging Face to redistribute many of its datasets and model weights, providing fast, reliable, and reproducible downloads.

Adding new datasets/models

If you would like to redistribute a new dataset/model via this community, it must satisfy a couple criteria:

• Must be under an open source license. This excludes source available licenses like CC-BY-NC or OpenRAIL.
• Must be under a license that allows redistribution. We can't redistribute your dataset/model unless the authors give us permission.

Priority is given to datasets/models with existing or work-in-progress TorchGeo data loaders/models, but all datasets/models are welcome if they satisfy these criteria.

If your dataset/model follows these criteria, please follow the following steps:

1. Upload the dataset/model to your own Hugging Face account.
2. Make sure you clearly document the license, where the dataset/model came from, and any changes you made.
3. Join the #technical-steering-committee channel of the TorchGeo Slack.
4. Post your request to onboard a new dataset/model. Provide a link to where the original license can be found.
5. The TSC will then vote to onboard your dataset/model. A simple majority vote is required.
6. If the vote passes, we will contact you with instructions to transfer your repository to our community.

If you are unable or unwilling to use Slack, you can also post a request on https://github.com/torchgeo/torchgeo/discussions.

Updating existing datasets/models

If you would like to make changes to an existing dataset/model (including one you recently added), please open a pull request for the specific repository. You may also need to contact someone on the TSC on GitHub or Slack, as we may not immediately see your pull request on Hugging Face.
