SuperDARN DMAP file format I/O
Documentation

A library for SuperDARN DMAP file I/O

github crates-io docs-rs

This project exposes both Rust and Python APIs for handling DMAP I/O. I/O can be conducted either directly to/from files or byte buffers.

The SuperDARN DMAP file formats are all supported (IQDAT, RAWACF, FITACF, GRID, MAP, and SND) as well as a generic DMAP format that is unaware of any required fields or types (e.g. char, int32) for any fields.
