SARkit is a suite of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)-related tools in Python developed and maintained by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) to encourage the use of SAR data standards.
With SARkit, you can:
- read and write SAR standards files (CPHD, SICD, SIDD)
- interact with SAR XML metadata using more convenient Python objects
- check SAR data/metadata files for inconsistencies
This project was developed at the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) as the modern successor to SarPy.
