GeoTIFF is a public domain metadata standard which allows georeferencing information to be embedded within a TIFF file.
In this tutorial we will learn how we can read a GeoTiff file and read data stored in it using a python package xarray .
Opening a GeoTiff file
da = xr.open_rasterio(‘test.tif’)

Here Coordinates are various dimensions available in this tiff file , Attributes are various image attributes of the tiff image .
Get values from DataArray
da.values

Getting Values based on a particular Co-ordinate values
ds = da.isel(x=3368, y=312)

In the next post will discuss how we can create a raster file format using multiple tiff images to store historical data and store them in netcdf file format .
