v0.3 - Alpha

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

• supports the following data products as distributed by ESA:
  • Sentinel-1 Ground Range Detected (GRD): NEW
    • Stripmap (SM)
    • Interferometric Wide Swath (IW)
    • Extra Wide Swath (EW)
  • Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) SM/IW/EW
• creates ready-to-use Xarray Datasets that map the data lazily and efficiently in terms of both memory usage and disk / network access
• reads all SAR imagery data: GRD images, SLC swaths and SLC bursts
• reads several metadata elements: satellite orbit and attitude, ground control points, radiometric calibration look up tables, Doppler centroid estimation and more
• reads uncompressed and compressed SAFE data products on the local computer or
  on a network via fsspec - depends on rasterio>=1.3a3
• supports larger-than-memory and distributed data access via Dask and rioxarray / rasterio / GDAL

v0.2.1
