Software Components
- VISAT – An intuitive desktop application to be used for visualization, analyzing and processing of remote sensing raster data. To get an impression of how VISAT looks and feels like, please take a look at the related screenshots page.
- A set of scientific tools running either from the command line or invoked by VISAT, also entirely written in Java.
- A rich Java API for the development of new remote sensing applications and BEAM extension plug-ins.
