Orfeo ToolBox (OTB) is an open-source project for state-of-the-art remote sensing. Built upon the foundation of the open-source geospatial community, it can process high-resolution optical, multispectral and radar images on the terabyte scale. A wide variety of applications are available, from ortho-rectification or pansharpening, to classification, SAR processing, and much more. | ||

All standard applications share the same implementation and automatically expose generated interfaces. However, they are accessed in a slightly different way: the command-line interface is prefixed by :code:`otbcli\_`. | ||
