Accessing NITF metadata with python

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to access the text segment of the metadata from a NITF raster using the python module in ArcMap.  I'm able to view the NITF metadata using the NITF for ArcGIS Extension inside the ArcMap GUI, but I haven't figured out a way to extract that metadata using python/arcpy.  Is this even possible?

Thanks,

Jason

Using ArcGIS Pro 2.3 you can now use gdal to access the text segment of the metadata from a NITF raster file.
