i cannot see what u did from the screenshots…
if, as u say, nothing is ticked, u should get only residues…
next question: are u using the star graph or something else?

we’d need to know how u computed the time series…
if u estimated and included the thermal expansion, then it’s reasonable…

can you send us some grab-screens?
in particular, about the time series you mention and about the options you used for processing
please include also the graph you used for the analysis

There is nothing called “SBAS” in my software
But you have many ways to process your data and in some ways do something similar to SBAS.
E.g. select an images graph (i.e. a set of interferograms) that best suites your case
– filter and unwrap interferograms
– apply an unwrapped (UW) time series estimation
You can either follow the classic steps of…[Read more]

A possible explanation is a wrong timing of the image relative to the orbital data.
Suggestion: plot the footprints of the full-frame, extract the full-frame Master and plot it.
Based on the 2 pictures, you can make a rough estimation of the shift between the real geographic location of the image and the apparent one retrieved from the orbits.
You…[Read more]

Can you please grab a few screenshots to show us your case?

if you start the SLC processing over again,
the Master and all previously generated files are overwritten.
Also, the Master area is set as default: center in the middle of the scene.
So, you have to set the Master area again. By the way, these operations were slightly improved recently: download the last version (or check in the updates history…[Read more]

first very important comment
why are you using the MST?
I’d suggest you to work with the Star Graph.
In fact, you are analyzing a structure, not distributed targets.
I also suggest you not to use weights.
Try this, and then let me know.
As for the range of parameters is concerned, at the beginning you can ignore it and use the default…[Read more]

Let’s make an example:
you have processed your dataset, and you got the following outputs (after APS and sparse points processing):
– Integrated Residuals APS
– height and velocity for each PS
So, you go to sparse point geocoding and the sw opens up the “sparse points processing” window asking you to input the processing options. Then you have…[Read more]

can you include a picture of the APS processing module, so we see which options you picked up?
tell us also which images graph you are using for the estimate

Hi Shimin

first of all, thanks for the question, I discovered an obsolete piece of code.
DBF is in fact an old option that was supposed to be replaced by simple CSV files.
However, I discovered now that the CSV is produced only if you check the “time series” option.
If you geocode the DBF without checking the “time series” option, a DBF file is…[Read more]

Hi Farnoosh

Residual Height = Height – External DEM

Removing an external DEM should reduce the unknown height (with “unknown height” I mean the source of the topographic component of the interferometric phase). Removing an external DEM is particularly useful in mountainous areas (the external DEM can decrease significantly the range of the…[Read more]

for this very moment I suggest you to apply a conversion with some other sw for manipulating geotiff files
in the future we’ll modify our code

As I said, you have 2 options:
a. get SLC data (not RAW)
b. focus them with roi-pac (or gamma)

any other way is possible but currently not supported

In the GCP selection module there is a flag: ‘OVW’ which stays for “overwrite”.
If you do not flag it, it will load the previous “mean kml” map.
Since you are not the first one asking about it, I switched it to checked as default…
You’ll get it in the next version, for the moment just check it manually.

Question for you and for all geotiff users:
is anybody needing an RGB DEM?
Or can I switch the system to automatically (and always) output geotiff DEM files in “black and white”?
After getting a feedback on this, I just need to change 1 line…
thx

hi Yuyu,

as you can read in the sw specifications, sarproz accept SLC data as inputs, that is, focused data.
Level 1.0 is raw data, and it cannot be imported.
You can either order again your data, asking for level 1.1 (SLC or focused) or use an other software to focus it (as roi-pac)

Hi Milan,

the key question is: in which format is your DEM?
if it’s geotiff, nothing to do (unless you find the way to re-write the geotiff).
The sw reads the fill-in boxes only if you are loading a matrix in gamma-format (read the manual).
In that case, changing the lat-lon coordinates has the wished effect.

To understand the error message you…[Read more]

Hi PY,

my suggestion would be first of all to look at interferograms.
case A. you have no coherence. Then the question is: is it on the mountains?
case A1. yes it’s on the mountains. Then download the last sw version and use the DEM-dependent coregistration refinement. This module requires a well aligned DEM. And it still needs some optimization…[Read more]
