Repository files navigation

Important Note

This repository is only a mirror of the Linux version of PolSARpro. It does contain all the files from PolSARpro_v6.0_Biomass_Edition_Package_Linux.zip, which can be found in the zip file PolSARpro_v6.0_Biomass_Edition_Linux_Installer_20190404.zip. In other words: PolSARpro minus the files of the PolSARpro installer.

The primary purpose of having these files here is to aid in packaging PolSARpro for SARbian.


The following README has been extracted from "README_PolSARpro_v6.0_Biomass_Edition_Linux_Installation_Procedure.pdf" and adjusted for better display.
