Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Purpose

 

Single layer and RGB colour composites, in Tiff (or Geotiff) format, can be be imported. This is required if the data have to be further processed within SARscape.

 

Technical Note

 

None.

 

Supported Products

 

Data in Tiff (Tagged Image File Format) format.

 

Input Files

 

Input file

Input file name. This file is mandatory.

 

DEM/Cartographic System

 

Output Projection

In case that the Geocoded flag is set, following parameters are compulsory to specify the Cartographic System:  

 

State

Definition of the country or general projection systems.

 

Projection

Definition of the projection system of the selected State. In case that a general projection system is selected in State, the Projection is automatically set.

 

Ellipsoid

Definition of the ellipsoid. This is chosen according to the selected State and Projection.

 

Hemisphere

Definition of the hemisphere. This is chosen according to the selected State and Projection.

 

Zone

Definition of the zone. This is chosen according to the selected State and Projection.

 

Datum Shift Parameters

Definition of the datum shift parameters. These are chosen according to the selected State and Projection.

 

Reference Height

In case that the Digital Elevation Model is not used, a constant ellipsoidal height must be provided. Default Reference Height is 0.

 

 

Parameters - Principal Parameters

 

Geocoded        

Set this flag, if the input data refer to a cartographic reference system.

 

Data Units

One of the following data units must be selected:

Coherence                Interferometric Coherence image.
Ellipsoidal DEM                Ellipsoidal Digital Elevation Model.
Geoidal DEM                Geoidal Digital Elevation Model.
DEM SlopeSlope image.
Digital Number                Generic image file.
Intensity                Radar reflectivity (or Power).
Amplitude                Square root of Intensity.
Single Look ComplexSLC Acquisition.
Interferogram                Interferogram image.
Flattened Interferogram Flattened interferogram image.

 

Geoid Type

If the Geoidal DEM is selected the Geoid Type among the EGM96 , EGM2008 or user defined model can be selected.

 

Use Dummy in Input Image

Pixel no-value (so called dummy) in the input data.

 

Parameters - Global

 

It brings to the general section of the Preferences 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

Output file name of the imported data. This file is mandatory.

 

_bil
