The Python package contains the bindings and an optional processing tool to transform the data you extracted using SEAScope into a PNG image or a binary array (Numpy format).
We recommend to install the Python bindings in a virtual environment: it is good practice but not mandatory.
python3 -m venv pyseascope
source pyseascope/bin/activate
The easiest way to install the package is to use the pip command to get pySEAScope from the official Python Package repository:
pip install pySEAScope
or if you downloaded the package yourself:
pip install "./pySEAScope-0.3.227.tar.gz"
If you want to use the seascope-processor tools (required to get the "Save as PNG" and "Save as Numpy" options in the viewer), use this command instead:
pip install pySEAScope[processor]
or if you downloaded the package yourself:
pip install "./pySEAScope-0.3.227.tar.gz[processor]"
Then start the processor:
seascope-processor
Finally enable the seascope-processor option in SEAScope settings and you should now be able to extract data as PNG images or Numpy arrays (the path of the output is displayed in the terminal wherein seascope-processor is running).
