I need to read in, chip by geocoords, and write out Planet Dove Scene Visual geotiffs using the GDAL libraries in Python in order to manage my data volumes, i.e., I want to work on the chips of airports, ports, etc. and don't need or want to carry around the extra data.

Can some one point me to code to do this?

  Hi Russell,

  Thank you for writing on Planet Community.

  I believe by chipping, you mean clipping. If so, please see our API documentation here: https://developers.planet.com/docs/orders/ . This contains the clipping functionality which will allow you to utilize it for full scenes so you can only use the pixels you need.

  Let me know if you have any further questions.

  Best Regards,

  Pooja
