SSINS is a python package intended for radio frequency interference flagging in radio astronomy datasets. It stands for Sky-Subtracted Incoherent Noise Spectra. If you use this software for published work, please cite this paper that describes the SSINS method: (doi:10.1088/1538-3873/ab3cad) (arxiv version: https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.01093).
python3 is now required. Support for python2 has been dropped.
