substring not found - Search and Import GEE data

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

This happened when I was trying to use the search and import data button. Can you kindly help?
Many thanks,
Daniel

What keyword did you use for the search?

[giswqs]

What's your geemap version? Try updating to the latest version using geemap.update_package() and restart the kernel to take effect.

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

Any keywords will result in the same error (e.g., elevation, CSIRO). The version I am using is '0.9.4'. The function to search for addresses and lat/lon works ok. I am not sure if there is an issue with my GE credential? Where is the GE credential stored in the local machine?

[giswqs]

It works fine on my computer. GEE credential should not be an issue. Otherwise, you won't be able to create the map. Try geemap.update_package() and restart the kernel to see if it resolves the issue.

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

I can add ee.Image manually, but the search function is still not working, both on VScode and Jupyter Notebook

[giswqs]

It appears that your package is not up to date. Line 360 shown on your screenshot is not the same as the Line 360 of the current version. Did you run geemap.update_package() and restart the kernel?

https://github.com/giswqs/geemap/blob/master/geemap/geemap.py#L360

[giswqs]

I just created a fresh conda env and installed geemap, and the search data GUI works fine. You might want to try creating a fresh conda env as well.

    conda create -n gee python=3.8
    conda activate gee
    conda install mamba -c conda-forge
    mamba install geemap -c conda-forge

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

Yes, I did. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the package. The geemap-master.zip was downloaded to the Downloads folder after running geemap.update_package(). I am not sure if it was extracted and updated in the virtual environment, but it still shows exactly the same error at Line 360

[giswqs]

print(geemap.__file__) see where your package is installed. Sometimes conda envs share some packages installed in a weird location, which might cause the issue.

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

The package was installed in e:\dropbox\py\projects\spatial\spatialvenv\lib\site-packages\geemap_init_.py
I installed it through pip, not conda. I can give it a test without the virtual environment later today.

[giswqs]

The file path does not seem right. Try Miniconda.

[Daniel-Trung-Nguyen]

That is where I had my virtual environment installed

Closing the issue for now. Feel free to reopen if needed.

I'm having the same issue, as geemap.search_ee_data(keyword) returns always an empty list. This can also be observed in the streamlit app here https://streamlit.geemap.org/ if you try to search for any map in the Google Earth Engine section. It gives me the same problem both on streamlit, and locally in my computer.

[fferlito]

Could it be some issue with GEE? Last Thursday everything was working fine.

[giswqs]

The GEE team made some changes to the Earth Engine STAC catalog. The might cause the issue. I haven't had time to look into to yet

[giswqs]

It works fine on my Linux machine. @fferlito What operating system are you using? python and geemap version?

[fferlito]

It works again now! Probably it was some issue with GEE.
