+# ALE Quick Start
+
+This document provides a set of steps to get setup for generating Image Support
+Data (ISD) for an image.
+
+## Installation
+
+Install ALE with conda. (If you don't have conda, [get it via miniforge](https://conda-forge.org/download/).)
+```sh
+    conda create -n ale
+    conda activate ale  # Activate your environment every time you need to use ALE.
+    conda install -c conda-forge ale
+```
+
+## Data
+
+Planetary imagery is not archived with sufficient data to generate an ISD
+from only the image and its label. ALE currently supports two supplementary data
+sources: ISIS cubes with attached SPICE, and NAIF SPICE Kernels.
+
+For ISIS cubes with attached SPICE (the
+[`spiceinit`](https://isis.astrogeology.usgs.gov/Application/presentation/Tabbed/spiceinit/spiceinit.html)
+application has been run on them) then ALE will use the data embedded in the
+cube file.
+
+For PDS3 images or ISIS cubes without attached
+SPICE, download the required NAIF SPICE Kernels for your
+image. We recommend using the metakernels provided in the
+[PDS kernel archives](https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/data_archived.html).
+Specify the path for ALE to search for metakernels via the
+`ALESPICEROOT` environment variable. This should be set to the directory where
+you have the PDS kernel archives downloaded. An example structure would be
+
+* $ALESPICEROOT
+    * mro-m-spice-6-v1.0
+    * dawn-m_a-spice-6-v1.0
+    * mess-e_v_h-spice-6-v1.0
+
+See `ale.base.data_naif.NaifSpice.kernels` for more information about how to
+specify NAIF SPICE kernels.
+
+## `load` and `loads`
+
+The `ale.drivers.load` and `ale.drivers.loads` functions are
+the main interface for generating ISDs. Simply pass them the path to your image
+file/label and they will attempt to generate an ISD for it.
+
+```py
+import ale
+
+image_label_path = "/path/to/my/image.lbl"
+isd_string = ale.loads(image_label_path)
+```
