Quickstart
The fastest way to get started is to add some example data and explore the user interface. This lets you try out all the features without having to set up credentials.
Add an example dataset
When you open Earthscale, there is a sidebar on the left-hand side that shows your current map and allows you to add new data.
Click on "Add new dataset"
Click the copy icon
next to an example dataset to paste its URL into the text field
Click next to proceed
We auto-generate a name for the dataset, but you can change it before adding it:
After clicking "Add" you can already see the dataset on the map!
Edit the visualization
Now, try adding a nodata value to see the visualization change immediately:
After adding a dataset, the visualization editor is automatically opened. To go back to the map, click "Go back" at the top-left side:
To change the visualization again, click the triple dot icon
that appears when you hover the dataset in the sidebar and click Edit Visualization in the menu
Click on the map to get pixel info
To get the exact value of a pixel, just click on it:
This places a marker at the exact location that was clicked. On the right-hand side, you can find the coordinates of the point as well as the pixel values for all bands at this location.
All visible datasets at the clicked point are queried, but you can disable or enable specific ones by clicking the table button 
on the right-hand side.
Work with multidimensional data
Add either the ERA5 or Sentinel-2 NDVI example datasets to explore multidimensional data:
After adding one of these, you can see the all dimensions as well as their currently displayed value below the dataset in the sidebar:
Click the pencil icon
to edit the current selection. You can toggle between a slider and a dropdown to select dimension values:
Click a pixel to see additional options for multidimensional datasets:
Click the chart icon
to query the history of the pixel value at the current location:
