✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, meet ALOS_pre_process_SS 🎀 It's a section 1 User Commands tool, and the NAME section is literally just ALOS_pre_process_SS - ALOS_pre_process_SS 💅 iykyk, it's the whole intro.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ALOS_pre_process_SS imagefile LEDfile [-near near_range] [-radius RE]
[-swath swath#] [-burst_skip] [-num_burst] [-swap] [-V] [-debug]
[-quiet]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This program is part of GMTSAR 🌈 so it's in the family.

Its main job: it creates data.raw and writes out parameters (PRM format) to stdout ✨

Here's what it takes in:

  • imagefile — an ALOS Level 1.0 complex file (CEOS format) 📸
  • LEDfile — an ALOS Level 1.0 LED file (CEOS leaderfile format) 📄

💅 options:

  • -near near_range — set the near range in meters (m) 📏
  • -radius RE — set the local earth radius in meters (m) 🌍
  • -swath swath# — pick swath number 1-5, default is 4 🎯
  • -burst_skip — how many bursts to skip before output starts (1559 lines/burst) ⏭️
  • -num_burst — how many bursts to process, default is all of them 🔢
there are 72 bursts in a WB1 frame 🍓
  • -swap — do the byte-swap (it should happen automatically) 🔄
  • -fd1 [DOPP] — sets the doppler centroid [fd1] to DOPP 🌀
  • -V — verbose mode, which writes information 📣
  • -debug — writes even more information than verbose 🕵️
  • -quiet — don't write any information at all 🤫

🧚 Example

🙈 Usage

Usage: ALOS_pre_process_SS imagefile LEDfile [-near near_range] [-radius RE]
[-swath swath#] [-burst_skip] [-num_burst] [-swap] [-V] [-debug]
[-quiet]
ngl the rest of this section just repeats the whole DESCRIPTION block word-for-word after the Usage line, so the same options, the same example, and the same burst table all show up again. Nothing new hiding back there 💀
