Feature Request: Convert SLC to SICD #71

Open joshday opened 1 year ago

joshday commented 1 year ago

I'm looking for something similar to https://sarpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/utils/convert_to_sicd.html#module-sarpy.utils.convert_to_sicd (but that actually works well).

I'm sorry that I'm unfamiliar with the AIR Centre or what the goals of this package are, but does conversion to SICD fall within the scope of features for this package?

Hi Josh, Rafael Schouten reached out to me about this as well. So far it is not something we have discussed, but it seems to me that it would be nice to implement it here or in a subpackage as we have the goal of being able to process SLC data from several sensors. We have a developer meeting Wednesday where I will bring it up.

Hi Josh,

I have looked a bit more into the format. It makes good sense to support io for SICD in SARProcessing.jl so it becomes easy to work with.

The format looks quite complex so I don't think that any of the current contributors will work on it soon. And even when we start on SICD we will probably begin by just importing the python or c++ library from the "national geospatial-intelligence agency" to test out the functionality.
