_Preparation of InSAR surface displacement maps for geophysical modelling_

## Installation

Install from pip:

```sh
pip install kite
```

With additional gdal dependency, used for GeoTIFF (GACOS and LiCSAR):

```sh
pip install kite[gdal]
```

## Introduction

This framework is streamlining InSAR displacement processing routines for earthquake inversion through [Pyrocko](https://www.pyrocko.org) and Grond.

Kite features simple and efficient handling of displacement data:

* Import InSAR displacement data from GAMMA, ISCE, GMTSAR, ROI_PAC, SARScape, [COMET LiCSAR](https://comet.nerc.ac.uk/COMET-LiCS-portal/), [SNAP](https://step.esa.int/main/toolboxes/snap/) and Matlab
* Import of average timeseries from [STAMPS](https://homepages.see.leeds.ac.uk/~earahoo/stamps/) and German [BodenBewegungsDienst](https://bodenbewegungsdienst.bgr.de)
* **Quadtree** calculation for data reduction
* **Covariance** estimation from data noise
* **APS removal** from [GACOS](http://ceg-research.ncl.ac.uk/v2/gacos/) atmoshperic models and empirical elevation correlation

## Short Example

```python
from kite import Scene

# Import Matlab container to kite
scene = Scene.load('SNAP_data/')
scene.spool() # start the GUI for data inspection and Quadtree parametrisation
```

Visual parametrisation of the quadtree and spatial covariance for SLC and InSAR time-series.
