v0.23.0

0.23.0 (2026-01-02)

A massive release to kick off 2026 in style!

🚀 New Features & Enhancements

• New Sensor Support: Added support for the VENUS sensor (@ArthurVincentCS).
• Exogenous Data: Allow loading and stacking of exogenous data (@gsalgues).
• SAR Data: Export local incidence angles (@simone-tilia), improved CSK and TerraSAR-X handling.
• Custom Products: Added gain and offset support for CustomProducts in DN (@oscarn2); disambiguate condensed name
• Maxar/Vantor:
  • Fix corrupted Maxar products with incoherent width between .IMD and .TIL files
  • Transitioned from Maxar to Vantor
  • Added calibration parameters for Worldview-Legion 03 to 06.
• Plotting: Enhanced plotting features, removed PIL dependency, and improved nodata handling.
• Dependencies: Dropped Python 3.9, added support for Python 3.13 & 3.14 and SNAP 12 & 13.

✅ Bug Fixes

• Orthorectification: Corrected DEM management with RPC and CRS issues.
• Data Handling: Planetscope custom names, PNEO and RADARSAT-2 regexes, WV Legion band order, improved CSK handling and other fixes.
• Fallbacks: Added fallbacks for KML errors and SNAP calibration regressions

🗒️ Full Changelog

Details

• ENH: Adding the support of VENUS sensor #235 - by @ArthurVincentCS
• ENH: Desambiguate condensed name of Custom stack in case of creation of several objects with the same datetime and same constellation and product type
• ENH: Fix corrupted Maxar products with incoherent width between .IMD and .TIL files #242
• ENH: Add TerraSAR-X management of default resolution and pixel size for RE data
• ENH: Add gain and offset for CustomProducts to cope with custom stacks in DN - by @oscarn2
• ENH: Allow exogenous data in load and stack #273 - by @gsalgues
• ENH: Export local incidence angles for SAR data - by @simone-tilia
• ENH: Enhance plotting feature (remove PIL usage, manage nodata and pass kwargs to plotting functions)
• ENH: Switch from Maxar to Vantor #280
• ENH: Add Worldview-Legion calibration parameters for satellite 03 to 06 included
• FIX: Write intermediate data for loaded bands also for Custom stacks
• FIX: Fix regression when stacking with a custom nodata value with VHR data to be reprojected
• FIX: Fix an unprecedented case with a PNEO having different name than usual (DIM_PNEO3_STD_2025... instead of DIM_PNEO3_2025...)
• FIX: Fix WV Legion wrong band order in Multi Spectral 1 mode #246
• FIX: Collocate Planet spectral bands with masks for some rare cases where it fails
• FIX: Loosen the constraints on PlanetScope stack name as it may change, from Analytic to composite, etc. #244
• FIX: Add a fallback in case of impossibleness of reading ICEYE QUICKLOOK.kml file
• FIX: Manage the case of Maxar data with negative absolute calibration factor: don't compute the reflectance and leave it as is.
• FIX: Fix DEM management with RPC orthorectification: handle correctly the vertical CRS (see DEM notebook and EOREADER_DEM_VCRS environment variable). #53
• FIX: Add DISPLAY as DIMAP-V2 radiometric processings #249
• FIX: Change RADARSAT-2 file regex to identify the product, to avoid confusion with others #250
• FIX: Add SGF product type for SCN sensor mode for RADARSAT-2 #251
• FIX: Precise metadata regex for SuperView data #253
• FIX: Handle old DIMAP V1 data #234
• FIX: Handle GCPs in VHR data
• FIX: Fix raw CRS exported as string rather than CRS object for Maxar data #255
• FIX: Use only the number of range looks to derive the resolution and pixel_size of CSG data #256
• FIX: Return an empty lxml.Element as metadata for S1 RTC ASF products instead of None to ensure consistency
• FIX: Set EPSG:4326 for rasters with empty CRS to be orthorectified with RPCs
• FIX: Fix multi-polarisation SAR data with swaths orthorectified independently (i.e. SAOCOM)
• FIX: Manage more CSK formats - by @simone-tilia
• FIX: Fix STAC product geometry with MPC #277
• FIX: Add fallback behavior with empty KML files for SAR data
• FIX: Fix loss of CRS when loading clouds from Sentinel-2 L2A
• FIX: Force nodata when opening Dimap V2 masks
• FIX: Factorize extent code
• FIX: Remove useless columns from footprint vectors
• FIX: Add a fallback for COSMO-SkyMed calibration regression in SNAP 13.0.0
• OPTIM: Use raw band path over default band path to speed up the computation of image information (extent, footprint, CRS, transform) of SAR ortho products
• OPTIM: Allow predictor = 3 with LZW compression when saving SAR intermediate data as SNAP handles it properly now. #173
• CI: Filter some warnings in pytest
• CI: Add some exception to coverage and add the report back into artifacts
