It is a by-product of a research project, its main connection is "these things were useful to the author while working on spectral images".

As you figured, I gathered and refactured multitude of the code that I mainly used in my research project. However, this is still not to say that someone cant find it useful :) I make a ton of effort to at least document the api and write at least some parts of the docs ;)

Oh I didn't mean to sound dismissive, it's just easier to understand it as a toolkit defined mostly by necessity.

ok, just making sure that we are on the same page. Yeah, the inception was mostly organic, since in the last years I could not find a library that would enable me to easily do these things. Most of the code we use internally at the institute and I figured why not to share it with others. Maybe anyone will also get encouraged to help me with implementation of other useful features.
