New library available: pyjeo !

I have been working on a new library pyjeo since I have moved to the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission. You are still free to use pktools, though support will be limited. I welcome you to use pyjeo instead. Unlike pktools, it is not a command line toolbox, but is rather used from Python. Please follow this link for more information and download instructions.

Introduction

pktools is a suite of utilities written in C++ for image processing with a focus on remote sensing applications. It relies on the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL, http://www.gdal.org) and OGR.

All utilities in pktools use command line options and have a built in help

use the -h option to get help
pktools ALWAYS use -i for input and -o for output (unlike GDAL utilities that commonly use last argument as output and second but last argument as input)
