ISOFIT contains a set of routines and utilities for fitting surface, atmosphere and instrument models to imaging spectrometer data. It is written primarily in Python, with JSON format configuration files and some dependencies on widely-available numerical and scientific libraries such as scipy, numpy, and scikit-learn. It is designed for maximum flexibility, so that users can swap in and evaluate model components based on different radiative transfer models (RTMs) and various statistical descriptions of surface, instrument, and atmosphere. It can run on individual radiance spectra in text format, or imaging spectrometer data cubes.
