A new ISMN reader version (v.1.0) with new Interface and features (such as simple metadata extraction and reading from zip file) was released on GitHub, (https://github.com/TUW-GEO/ismn). This tool greatly facilitates the reading of data from ISMN downloads. Thank you Wolfgang Preimesberger for the complete overhaul of our reader software and to Sebastian Hahn for providing the initial new interface structure and to all our active contributers!
