General Tools - Mosaicking - Slant Range Mosaicking

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Purpose

 

Slant Range or Ground Range (i.e. not geocoded) SAR products, which have been acquired along the same orbit and with the same viewing geometry, can be mosaiced. The functionality supports only data generated with zero-Doppler annotation.

 

Technical Note

 

This functionality is intended to generate a single file, in the original SAR viewing geometry, from a set of independent frames. Even if this functionality is conceived especially for Slant Range products, it is also suitable for Ground Range data; in this last case the program first performs a transformation from ground to slant geometry and then the mosaic is generated in the slant "rebuilt" geometry.

 

It is important to outline that this tool does not take into account doppler variations from one to the other frame along the mosaiced segment. This means that, if such variations exist in the mosaiced frames, the resulting product is not suitable for interferometric processing.

 

 

Input Files

 

Input file list

Input file list of the slant or ground range data (_slc, _gr, _pwr). This file list is mandatory.

 

Output Files

 

Output file

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

 

_slant_msc        

Mosaic 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.
