## General Information

This package generates derived SAR parameters (viz. polarimetric descriptors, vegetation indices, polarimetric decomposition parameters) from different SAR sensors or input polarimetric matrix (S2, C3, T3, Sxy, C2, T2). 

<!-- The input data needs to be in [PolSARpro](https://earth.esa.int/web/polsarpro/home)/[ENVI](https://www.l3harrisgeospatial.com/Software-Technology/ENVI) format (\*.bin and \*.hdr).  -->

## Installation
### 1. Install **`gdal`** Package

```bash
conda install gdal -c conda-forge
```

### 2. Install **`polsartools`** Package

a. You can install it using `pip`:

```bash
pip install polsartools
```

b. If you encounter an error like `` AttributeError: module 'polsartools' has no atribute 'xyzabc' ``  or need the latest version, you can install the updated version directly from GitHub:

```bash
pip install git+https://github.com/Narayana-Rao/polsartools.git#egg=polsartools
```

>**Note for Windows users:** 
> To install from GitHub (2.b), Microsoft C++ build tools must be installed first.
