Purpose
Standard products are imported into the SARscape Data Format for further processing.
Technical Note
In case of RAW data, the import is carried out by the Focusing module.
In case the input is a list of files, all products must be of the same type (refer to the "Supported Products" section).
In case of ERSDAC Products the following inputs are possible:
| - | Level 1.1 data, which are generated by the Vexcel processor. These are imported by entering the "Param list" (.SLC.par file name suffixes) and "Data list" (.SLC file name suffixes). |
| - | Level 1.5, 4.1 and 4.2 data, which are in CEOS format. |
It is worthwhile to note that, once the data in ERSDAC format (zero doppler) and in JAXA format (not zero doppler) have been imported, it is possible to combine them both in the amplitude/intensity processing (e.g. coregistration, time series filtering, etc.) and in the interferometric processing.

Input Files
Input File list
Input file name(s) of the original data. These files are mandatory.
Parameters - Principal Parameters
Data Type
Specify acquisition mode and product type relevant to the data to import.
Apply Calibration Constant
The calibration constant is applied (if available). Note: this has no effect of phase values.
Rename The File Using Parameters
If set to true, only relevant information will be copied from the input name(s) to the output name(s), the full root name otherwise.
Parameters - Global
It brings to the general section of the Preferences specific parameters. Any modified value will be used and stored for further processing sessions.
Parameters - Other Parameters
It brings to the general section of the Preferences parameters. Any modified value will be used and stored for further processing sessions.
Output Files
Output file list
Output file name(s) of the imported data. These files are mandatory.
Root name or assembled name of the imported file(s) and associated header files (.sml, .hdr). Specific file suffixes are added according to the data type.
.shp
Shape file and associated header files (.sml, .hdr) containing the image perimeter in geographic co-ordinates.
.kml
ASCII file containing the image perimeter in geographic co-ordinates. Double clicking on this file will automatically position the boundaries of the scene into the Google Earth environment.
Details specific to the Units of Measure and Nomenclature of the output products can be found in the Data Format section.
