The Synthetic Aperture Radar toolset contains tools that correct, process, and enable analysis of SAR data.
Tool | Description |
---|---|
Orthorectifies the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data using a range-Doppler backgeocoding algorithm. | |
Updates the orbital information in the Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data using a more accurate orbit state vector (OSV) file. | |
Converts the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) reflectivity into physical units of normalized backscatter by normalizing the reflectivity using a reference plane. | |
Corrects the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for radiometric distortions due to topography. | |
Computes various SAR indices for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, such as Radar Vegetation Index (RVI), Radar Forest Degradation Index (RFDI), and Canopy Structure Index (CSI). | |
Converts the scaling of the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data between amplitude and intensity, between linear and decibels (dB), and between complex and intensity. | |
Creates a three-band raster dataset from a multiband raster dataset. | |
Merges the multiple bursts from the input Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and outputs a single, seamless subswath raster. | |
Corrects the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data for speckle, which is a result of coherent illumination that resembles a grainy or salt and pepper effect. | |
Detects potential bright human-made objects—such as ships, oil rigs, and windmills—while masking out the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data outside the region of interest. | |
Identifies potential dark pixels belonging to oil spills or algae, and clusters these pixels, while masking out the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data outside the region of interest. | |
Downloads the updated orbit files for Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. | |
Finds water bodies using input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data and a DEM. | |
Averages the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data by looks in range and azimuth to approximate square pixels, mitigates speckle, and reduces SAR tool processing time. | |
Corrects backscatter disturbances caused by thermal noise in the input synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, resulting in a more seamless image. |
