v0.2 - Alpha
Overall the software is in the alpha phase and the usual caveats apply.
A few features, identified as technology preview below, are not fully usable yet.
- supports the following data products as distributed by ESA:
- Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC):
- Stripmap (SM)
- Interferometric Wide Swath (IW)
- Extra Wide Swath (EW)
- Wave (WV) - technology preview
- Sentinel-1 Ground Range Detected (GRD) SM/IW/EW/WV - technology preview
- Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC):
- creates ready-to-use Xarray
Dataset
s that map the data
lazily and efficiently in terms of both memory usage and disk / network access - reads all SAR imagery data: GRD images, SLC swaths and SLC bursts
- reads several metadata elements:
satellite orbit and attitude, ground control points, radiometric calibration look up tables,
Doppler centroid estimation and more - reads uncompressed and compressed SAFE data products on the local computer or
on a network via fsspec - technology preview - allows larger-than-memory and distributed processing via dask
