Quick start

# Interactive footprint map in the browser
isistools footprints cubes.lis

# Export publication-ready PNG
isistools footprints cubes.lis --png --title "My Mosaic"

# Mosaic review with control network (Qmos replacement)
isistools mosaic cubes.lis --cnet control.net

# Tie point review (Qnet replacement)
isistools tiepoints cubes.lis control.net

# Batch footprintinit (parallel)
isistools footprintinit cubes.lis -j 8

# Control network summary
isistools cnet-info control.net

Why?

ISIS's Qmos and Qnet have several pain points:

• Qmos requires level-1 images but displays footprints in map projection, and renders image content very slowly.
• Qnet requires level-2 images but displays them flipped in detector readout order.
• Both use a color scheme where registered control points are nearly invisible while unregistered points are prominent.

isistools fixes all of these. See the documentation for details on each command, the Python API, and example figures.
