ASA_CAT(1)

🌸 asa_cat 🌸

okay bestie, this is the manual for asa_cat β€” that's the name, that's the whole name, it's giving minimal but make it iconic πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

asa_cat β€” literally just asa_cat. no cap. that's the name. that's the vibe. 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

asa_cat <NumFiles2Cat> <asa_file1> <asa_file2> <...>  <out_file>
[catAbort]

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so this program? it's part of GMTSAR ✨

*** asa_cat v1.3 by Dochul Yang and Vikas Gudipati***

what it does: concatenates Envisat ASAR Image Mode / Wide Swath Mode Level 0 data. that's it. it glues your ASAR level 0 files together along track and it does it flawlessly, periodt. πŸ¦‹

here's who's who in the lineup:

  • NumFiles2Cat β€” how many files you're concatenating. positive integer only, bestie, and the max is 100. one hundred. don't push it. πŸ™ˆ
  • asa_file1 β€” the first file to be merged (along track)
  • asa_file2 β€” the second file to be merged (along track)
  • ... β€” the rest of the files to be merged (along track)
  • out_file β€” the output data file. this is where it all goes. main character energy. πŸ‘‘
  • [catAbort] β€” the flag that decides what happens if you've got non-overlapping frames on your hands. 0 means discontinue, 1 means continue, and the default is 0. so yeah, by default it bails. know that. πŸ’€

Notes:

lowkey the notes section is just… empty? like there's a Notes: heading and then nothing under it. that's not me being mysterious, that's literally the page. πŸ’€

🌈 the same thing again, as usage 🌈

Usage: asa_cat <NumFiles2Cat> <asa_file1> <asa_file2> <...> <out_file> [catAbort]

  • NumFiles2Cat β€” number of files to be concatenated (positive integer, Max: 100)
  • asa_file1 β€” first file to be merged (along track)
  • asa_file2 β€” second file to be merged (along track)
  • ... β€” rest of files to be merged (along track)
  • out_file β€” output data file
  • [catAbort] β€” flag to discontinue concatenation if non-overlaping frames are found. (0: Discontinue, 1: Continue, Default: 0)

Notes:

again with the empty Notes:. ngl it's giving "the notes are within you" 🧚✨

and that's the whole page, bestie β€” no more sections, no more secrets, we ate and left no crumbs πŸ“

okay and before I go, the lil' sign-off at the bottom of the page says this beauty is asa_cat from May 2024, sitting under the ASA_CAT(1) header. so like, it's not new-new but it's ours. πŸ’œπŸŽ€ bye!!
