Plot main-path segments for multiple rivers in a multi-panel figure.

Each panel shows one river's main path colored by segment (split at the common confluence points), with the confluence locations marked.

If segment_groups (output of :func:match_river_segments) is provided, only matched segments are colored; rejected segments are drawn in grey. Segment colors are keyed to the segment_index in each group so that the same physical reach has the same color across all panels.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
rivers list of River

Processed River objects.

required
common_confluences list of dict

Output of :func:find_common_confluences. Each dict must have a 'utm_coords' key with (x, y) UTM coordinates.

required
segment_groups list of dict

Output of :func:match_river_segments. When provided, colors are assigned by segment_index and only matched river/segment pairs are colored. Unmatched segments are drawn in rejected_color.

None
ncols int

Number of columns in the panel grid (default 4).

4
figsize_per_panel tuple

(width, height) in inches per panel (default (4, 5)).

'tab10'
rejected_color str or tuple

Color for segments that were not matched (default '0.75', light grey).

'0.75'
confluence_color str

Marker colour for confluence points (default 'k').

'k'
confluence_marker str

Marker style for confluence points (default 'o').

'o'
confluence_size float

Marker size for confluence points (default 40).

40
linewidth float

Line width for centerline segments (default 2).

2
show_mndwi bool

If True, show the MNDWI water mask as a background (default True).

True
mndwi_cmap str

Colormap for the MNDWI background (default 'Greys').

'Greys'
mndwi_alpha float

Alpha for the MNDWI background (default 0.4).

0.4
show_tributaries bool

If True, plot tributary branches from each river for context (default True).

True
tributary_color str or tuple

Color for tributary lines (default '0.5', medium grey).

interactive_scatter(df, x, y, c=None, cmap=None, title=None, hover_cols=None)

Create an interactive scatter plot for selecting data points from a DataFrame.

Uses plotly for reliable interactive selection in Jupyter notebooks. Click on points to see their details in the hover tooltip. Use the box select or lasso select tools in the plotly toolbar to select multiple points. The selected row indices are returned.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
df DataFrame

The DataFrame containing the data (e.g. output of create_dataframe_from_results).

required
x str

Column name for the x-axis.

required
y str

Column name for the y-axis.

required
c str or None

Column name used to colour the points. Works with both numeric and categorical columns.

None
cmap dict or None

When c is categorical, a {category: color} mapping. Unmapped categories fall back to gray.

None
title str or None

Plot title.

None
hover_cols list of str or None

Extra column names to show in the hover tooltip. If None, shows date1, date2, and the colour column (if any).

None

Returns:

Name Type Description
selector object

A selector object with a .selected attribute (list of int) that updates as you select points. Access selector.selected after making your selection.

Examples:

>>> sel = rb.interactive_scatter(
...     df, 'width_diff (m)', 'r_squared_curv_mr',
...     c='pair_class', title='Purus 2')
>>> # Use box/lasso select in the plotly toolbar, then:
>>> sel.selected  # [3, 17, 42]

def interactive_scatter(df, x, y, c=None, cmap=None, title=None,

    """
    Create an interactive scatter plot for selecting data points from a DataFrame.

    Uses plotly for reliable interactive selection in Jupyter notebooks.
    Click on points to see their details in the hover tooltip. Use the
    **box select** or **lasso select** tools in the plotly toolbar to
    select multiple points.  The selected row indices are returned.

    Parameters
    ----------
    df : pandas.DataFrame
        The DataFrame containing the data (e.g. output of
        ``create_dataframe_from_results``).
    x : str
        Column name for the x-axis.
    y : str
        Column name for the y-axis.
    c : str or None, optional
        Column name used to colour the points.  Works with both numeric
        and categorical columns.
    cmap : dict or None, optional
        When *c* is categorical, a ``{category: color}`` mapping.
        Unmapped categories fall back to gray.
    title : str or None, optional
        Plot title.
    hover_cols : list of str or None, optional
        Extra column names to show in the hover tooltip.  If *None*,
        shows ``date1``, ``date2``, and the colour column (if any).

    Returns
    -------
    selector : object
        A selector object with a ``.selected`` attribute (list of int)
        that updates as you select points.  Access
        ``selector.selected`` after making your selection.

    Examples
    --------

required
pair_idx int

Index of the pair to visualize.

required
calibration dict

50
pixel_size float

Pixel size for width conversion.

None
ax Axes

Axes to plot on. If None, a new figure is created.

Render animation frames showing river evolution through time.

Each frame has three panels: the (false-color) image, the image with cumulative deposition polygons, and the image with cumulative erosion polygons (colored by age via :func:create_and_plot_bars). Frames where deposition/erosion cannot be computed (the first frame, and any frame fewer than two time steps after baseline_index) show the plain channel polygon instead.

The three input lists must be aligned (same length, same order), as returned by :func:match_rivers_to_images and :func:prepare_image_stack.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
matched_rivers list of River

Processed rivers, in date order.

required
image_stack list of numpy.ndarray or None

Cropped, normalized background images (None entries are skipped).

required
dates list of datetime.datetime

Acquisition dates, used for frame labels and filenames.

required
aoi_bounds list

[left, right, bottom, top] of the area of interest.

required
output_dir str

Directory for the output PNGs (created if needed).

'river_evolution_figures'
select_dates list of str or None

If given, only rivers whose acquisition_date ('YYYY-MM-DD') is in this list are rendered. None (default) renders all.

None
baseline_index int

Index of the river used as time step 1 for the cumulative deposition/erosion maps (default 0).

0
depo_cmap str

Colormaps for deposition and erosion polygons (default 'plasma').

'plasma'
erosion_cmap str

Colormaps for deposition and erosion polygons (default 'plasma').

'plasma'
alpha float

Transparency of the deposition/erosion polygons (default 1.0).

1.0
dpi int

Resolution of the saved figures (default 300).

300
scalebar bool

Whether to add scale bars (requires the optional matplotlib-scalebar package; silently skipped with a warning if not installed).

True
date_fontsize int

Font size of the date label (default 14).

14
frame_prefix str

Filename prefix for the frames (default 'river_evolution').

'river_evolution'

Returns:

Type Description
list of str

Paths of the PNG frames that were written, in order.

assemble_movie(frames, output_path, fps=6, width=None, crf=18)

Assemble PNG frames into an MP4 movie using ffmpeg.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
frames str or list

Either a glob pattern (e.g. 'river_evolution_figures/river_evolution_*.png'), a directory containing the PNG frames, or an explicit list of frame paths (e.g., the return value of :func:make_river_evolution_frames, in which case their common directory and prefix are used).

required
output_path str

Path of the output .mp4 file.

required
fps int

Frames per second (default 6).

6
width int

Output width in pixels; the height is scaled proportionally. If None (default), the full resolution is kept (trimmed to even dimensions, as required by the H.264 encoder).

None
crf int

H.264 quality (lower = better/larger; default 18).

18

Returns:

Type Description
str

The output path.
