Why do you read in the bands more than once? Is there a difference between these two sets of images?

I understand remote sensing and the difference between bands. You read in band1 as
band1 <- ("b01.tiff")
and then overwrite it with
band1 <- raster("C:/Users/Owner/Desktop/sare backup/c/user hadar/Desktop/GEO511/Tasks/geo511-tasks-hsare/geo511-2020-final-project/geo511-2020-project-hsare/selection_of_landingMining_sites/b01.tiff")

There is no reason to read them in twice (the second one overwrites the first).

# Materials and methods

[~ 200 words]
I choosed 9 sites as training sites (Si polar swath"I00831006"; Lyot crater"V00823007"; Cerberus fossae"V00825005";Echus chasma"I00839002"; Sinus Meridiana west"I00849005"; Syrtis Major"I00853002"; Ophir planum"I00864002"; Marte vallis"I00868006; Eastern Meridiani"I00836002").
For each training site, I downloaded and used Raster data. Those Raster data are Visible and infrared data in the “.TIFF” format and are combination of nine(9) or ten (10) bands according to Mars Odysee website. Each band is reflecting data in a specific wavelength. Even though all bands in each training site were already together in a single image in the website, I still re-added them together after using an image processing algorithm to correct the images in order to create a metadata file containing all information from each site. For Mars, I don't need to resize any band before adding them together because they all have the same size.I finally used the band ratio combination to determine the presence, abundance and distribution of water, water ice, ice or volatiles materials in each site I choosed as training site and from there I was able to see Lyot crater"V00823007" can be selected as the best future landing/mining site. I finally get the GPS coordinates of some locations within the Lyot crater"V00823007" site and plot those locations on a Martian globe using the package threejs.The locations shown on the Martian gloge which are within Lyot crater"V00823007" site are consider to be the future mining site because volatile materials are abundants in those locations compare to other location within Lyot crater"V00823007".

This is not explained adequately. The methods you use need to contained in this script (ideally) or explained with sufficient detail to reproduce the steps. The line "still re-added them together after using an image processing algorithm to correct the images in order to create a metadata file containing all information from each site" is nonsensical. Please revise/clarify.


Code: The code associated with the project is well organized and easy to follow. Demonstrates mastery of R graphics and functions.
The goal here is to detect the site where we could have more water/ water ice/ volatiles materials. I applied some corrections to the satelitte images I downloaded.

what corrections? Why?

* The first most important thing
* The second most important thing
* The third most important thing
I prepare the data by reading in the different bands that comprise the satelitte imagery. Each band refers to different spectrum and all bands below are from Lyot crater"V00823007" image.

However, we are dealing with the Martian data in our project and we observed that for Martian data, we have the same size so we will just add them all together.But I add only band4, band5, band6, band8 and band9 together because those wavelength are able to reflect the distribution of water on the selected site.
```{r}
#image1 <- stack(band4, band5, band6)
image2 <- stack(band4, band5, band6, band8, band9) #Here is for Mars images

There is only mars now, right? So you can revise language to remove mention of earth.

check res, I don't think it's doing what you think it is here.

For Mars,the formula change little bit because all bands are collected and stored in the same file in Mars Odysee website. False color or black and white could reveal the distribution of water. However, we use the formula:

MNDWI <- (band4)/(1/band9).
This formula is derived after multiple simulations and observations

what do you mean by 'multiple simulations and observations'? Please specify and preferably include the code here.

## PART2: Visualization of mining sites within the selected landing site on Martian gloge (map)

After knowing that Lyot crater"V00823007" site is the best site to be consider as best future landing site according to the figure above, We just get the GPS coordinates of some locations within the Lyot crater"V00823007" site (GPS coordinates from the onboard GPS of the spacecraft), created an exel file containing the coordinates of those locations and plot them on Martian georeferenced globe using the threejs package.

How do you know it's the 'best'? Not from this analysis. So this is more of an introduction than a result. Please revise.

As state previously, the locations within Lyot crater"V00823007" shown on the Martian gloge are the future mining site because volatile materials are more abundants in those locations compare to other location within Lyot crater"V00823007".

So this is apriori knowledge not a result - please revise to make this clear. The way it's written now makes it sound like this is a result.

##Results2
I firstly prepared and loaded the data and then with the package called "threejs" I plot the exact locations of mining sites on the Martian global map. I created a cvs file where I stored the latitudes and logitude of the future mining sites within Lyot crater"V00823007" site and then call that file in R.

What was the preparation? No preparation here, just reading in a csv.

# Conclusions
The selection of the best landing site is firstly done by choosing training sites and processing satellites images to see where the water or volatiles materials are abundant. Secondly, we get the geographical coordinates of the locations consider to be best mining sites within Lyot crater"V00823007" and plot them on a Martian globe using the package threej.

But this was not done in this script! You loaded and plotted some images (and a related index) and then loaded and plotted some points. There was no analysis.

low = "#087F28",
name = "Water or Water ice or Volatiles materials")
```

So here is where I would expect you to take the index and somehow select locations from it (e.g. selecting the top 10 pixels or something). But instead, you just read in an unrelated set of points and plot it on a different image. There is no explicit connection between part 1 and part 2. You need to make that connection explicit (with code) for this project to be acceptable.

A few more comments in the attached review. There are a few things that need to be fixed before this will be an acceptable final project. Let me know if you have any questions.
