Python client SDK (velstrom-sdk)
Use the command below to install the package, and the template to initialize your first planetary spatial computations.
Installation Command
bash
| 1 | pip install velstrom-sdk |
Initialization Template Code
example_python.py
| 1 | import velstrom as vel |
| 2 | |
| 3 | # Initialize secure connection session |
| 4 | session = vel.Session(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY") |
| 5 | |
| 6 | # Query Sentinel-2 multispectral imagery bounding box |
| 7 | imagery_items = session.imagery.search( |
| 8 | bbox=[-122.68, 45.51, -122.65, 45.53], |
| 9 | platform="sentinel-2", |
| 10 | date_range=("2026-05-01", "2026-06-01") |
| 11 | ) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | # Fetch index raster (NDVI) as in-memory numpy array |
| 14 | raster = imagery_items[0].compute_index("NDVI") |
| 15 | ndvi_array = raster.read() |
