Description
Summary:Recent development by European Space Agency (ESA) involved the extension of the interferometric capabilities of the SentiNel Application Platform (SNAP) to enable SAR interferometric time series analysis through the Stanford Method of Persistent Scatterer (StaMPS) software package. In the current work, we demonstrate the enabled Persistent Scatterers Interferometry (PSI) processing of Copernicus Sentinel-1 mission data through SNAP-StaMPS integrated processing. A detailed overview of the processing steps involved as well as considerations and assumptions to exploit the SNAP-StaMPS synergy are presented. We intend to support the Earth Observation community by providing guidelines for Sentinel-1 TOPS data PSI processing using open source software packages. We demonstrate the SNAP functionality by processing two stacks of Sentinel-1 products over Mexico City (Mexico) and Rome (Italy).
