A class histogram on a 10 m land-cover raster: the shares a planning document quotes, and the reason a pixel count is not quite an area.
You hand in your answers as values.
Dataset
- Greater London land cover 2021 (ESA WorldCover 10 m) · Raster · EPSG:4326
What you’ll do
- Read a categorical raster and count pixels per class
- Express classes as shares of the valid pixels
- State what the number is and is not

Compute NDVI from a two-band Sentinel-2 clip, handle nodata and integer types properly, and report the distribution a monitoring programme quotes.
You hand in your answers as values.
Dataset
- Greater London, Sentinel-2 red and NIR, 11 July 2025 · Raster · EPSG:32630
What you’ll do
- Compute a band ratio index with correct types
- Exclude nodata from every statistic
- Summarise the index as the programme's three figures
