The Optical Toolbox combines the functionality of the Sentinel-2 and Sentinel-3 toolboxes into a new module. It consists of a rich set of visualisation, analysis and processing tools for the exploitation of optical medium and high-resolution products including Sentinel-2 MSI and Sentinel-3 OLCI and SLSTR sensors and the ESA missions Envisat (MERIS & AATSR), ERS (ATSR).
\nAs a multi-mission remote sensing toolbox, it also provides support for third party data from RapidEye, SPOT, MODIS (Aqua and Terra), Landsat (TM) as well as ALOS (AVNIR & PRISM) and others.<\/p>\n
The various tools can be run from an intuitive desktop application or via a command-line interface. A rich application programming interface allows for development of plugins using Java or Python.<\/p>\n
