SAR Calibration Toolbox (SCT)

Sar Calibration Toolbox (SCT) is the official Aresys Python toolbox for SAR quality data processing. This software provides several features to perform a quality analysis of SAR L1-B products (both SLC and GRD).

SCT is an open source tool developed in the framework of EDAP (Earthnet Data Assessment Project) and SAR MPC (Mission Performance Cluster) projects. For more details please visit:

Software Architecture

Here is a brief overview of the software architecture of SCT:

Software Architecture
Schematics of the software architecture.

The SCT framework is designed to be analysis-agnostic with respect to input product formats. Product format plugins are used to decouple the analysis code from the input data type, allowing new input product formats to be added without modifying the core analysis code.
