Purpose
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
Depending on the input file structure, one of the following three data formats must be specified when RGB colour composites are imported:
BIP - Band interleaved by pixel.
BIL - Band interleaved by line.
BSQ - Band sequential.
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.
Cartographic Parameters
The reference parameters for some projection systems (e.g. Stereographic, Polar Stereographic, Gnomonic, Mercator, Miller, Albers, etc.) can be set.
Parameters - Principal Parameters
Interleave Type
Set the appropriate RGB pixel interleave for the image (refer to the Technical Note for details).
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:
| Classification | Classification image. |
| Coherence | Interferometric Coherence image. |
| DEM | Digital Elevation Model. |
| DEM Slope | Slope image. |
| Digital Number | Generic image file. |
| Intensity | Radar reflectivity (or Power). |
| Amplitude | Square root of Intensity. |
Dummy Value
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
Imported single layer image and associated header files (.sml, .hdr).
_R
Imported Red channel, of an RGB composite, and associated header files (.sml, .hdr).
_G
Imported Green channel, of an RGB composite, and associated header files (.sml, .hdr).
_B
Imported Blue channel, of an RGB composite, and associated header files (.sml, .hdr).
Details specific to the Units of Measure and Nomenclature of the output products can be found in the Data Format section.
