| Description | |
| Summary | The common problem of using satellite data is their distribution formats, which are not friendly in immediate use in various scientific and analysis tasks. Thus, their format conversion to user-friendly formats becomes necessary. All satellite parameters and products are in ready-to-use GIS format (e.g. commonly geo-referenced, etc) |
