# Sarsen

Algorithms and utilities for SAR sensors. Enables cloud-native SAR processing via *Xarray* and *Dask*.

## Target features

Overall the software is in early **alpha** phase and the usual caveats apply.

- provides algorithms to terrain-correct satellite SAR data
  - geometric terrain correction (geocoding)
    - *fast mode*: to terrain-correct images
    - *accurate mode*: for interferometric processing
  - radiometric terrain correction (gamma flattening)
- SAR data access via [*xarray-sentinel*](https://github.com/bopen/xarray-sentinel):
  - supports all Sentinel-1 data products as [distributed by ESA](https://scihub.copernicus.eu/dhus/#/home):
    - Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) SM/IW/EW/WV
    - Sentinel-1 Ground Range Detected (GRD) SM/IW/EW/WV
  - reads uncompressed and compressed SAFE data products on the local computer or
    on a network via [*fsspec*](https://filesystem-spec.readthedocs.io)
- DEM data access via [*rioxarray*](https://corteva.github.io/rioxarray):
  - reads local and remote data in virtually any raster format via
    [*rasterio*](https://rasterio.readthedocs.io) / [*GDAL*](https://gdal.org)
- supports larger-than-memory and distributed data access and processing via [*dask*](https://dask.org)

## Non-objectives / Caveat emptor

- No attempt is done to support UTC leap seconds. Observations that include a leap second may crash the code or
  silently return wrong results.

## Usage

```python-repl
>>> import sarsen

```
