I have been tasked with making GDAL capable of dealing with a new NITF type (https://calval.cr.usgs.gov/apps/sites/default/files/jacie/BarbaraEckstein.pdf) that has major buy-in from data providers. Due to the ubiquity of GDAL, making the change at this level will give the most people access. The Spectral NITF Implementation Profile (SNIP): A New Standard for Multispectral and Hyperspectral Imagery Datasets<https://calval.cr.usgs.gov/apps/sites/default/files/jacie/BarbaraEckstein.pdf> The NITF Standard (NITFS) consists of a file header and different “segment” types Some segments may include “tagged record extensions” (TREs), i.e., metadata headers calval.cr.usgs.gov

How are Data Extension Segments (DES) accessed > through GDAL? Complicated topic. TRE stored in DES are reported in the TRE and xml:TRE metadata domains. For generic DES extraction, you need to build GDAL with the ESRI_BUILD macro enabled, and then they should be reported as Base64 encoded content in the NITF_DES metadata domain, but I haven't tried such builds recently.
