+SatDump is a general purpose satellite data processing software.
+It is a one-stop-shop that provides all the necessary stages to get
+from the satellite transmission to actual products.
+
+Features:
+- Support of many SDRs such as:
+ RTL-SDR, Airspy, HackRF, BladeRF, LimeSDR, PlutoSDR, etc.
+- Recording of radio basebands from your SDR
+- Decoding and processing the data from over 90 different satellites
+ and even space probes.
+- Live decoding of supported satellite links such as:
+ APT, LRPT, HRPT, LRIT, HRIT and many more.
+- Image and data decoding from satellites such as
+ NOAA 15-18-19, Meteor-M, GOES, Elektro-L, Metop, FengYun, etc.
+- Calibrated and georefrenced L1b products output on select satellites,
+ such as Sea Surface Temperature, Microphysics, etc. ready to use
+ for scientific applications such as numerical weather forecasts.
+- Support for projecting the satellite imagery over a map,
+ including layering with other instruments or satellites.
+- Inmarsat Aero and STD-C EGC messages decoding.
+- Scheduler and rotator control for automated satellite stations.
+- Ingestor for automated geostationary weather satellites reception.
+
+Depending to your SDR hardware you may want to install some or all:
+RTL-SDR, Airspy, HackRF, BladeRF, LimeSDR, PlutoSDR, ...
+(not all available at slackbuilds.org)
+
+Optional features can be enabled installing: hdf5, luajit, armadillo
