I'm trying to process a set of ERS-2 imageries in Envisat format.
According to the manual, I should use the script step_slc_ers_envi for
this, however I can't find the said script in the StaMPS package. Is
there any place where I can get a copy of this script? Thanks in
advance!

Hi,

For reading focused ERS images in Envisat format I shortcut by changing, before "link_slcs" step, the name of the files SAR....E1 or .E2  to A*.....N1, so that it calls the Envisat reader instead of the ERS reader. Just that.

Inside the "StaMPS_v3.2.1\DORIS_SCR\" folder, the  "
M_IN_METHOD"  in the files "master_read_files_envisat" and "readfiles_Envisat" can also be switched from "ASAR" to "ERS_N1"; but I don´t know what difference lies behind.

Thanks for the suggestion. Did you just rename the files, or did you do anything else? Have you also tried processing imageries before 2002?

Hi,

Indeed this script is not included in the latest version.
We will try to fix this as soon as possible.

Kind regards,

David

I renamed the files and changed the "M_IN_METHOD" to ERS_N1 (which is an option of the last DORIS).
Yes, with imagery before 2002.

I see, so other than to create an SLC from the image using ROI_PAC (or any other software), is there any workaround for this?

Hi,

Attached you can find a couple of scripts that were missing.
copy/update  them in your StaMPS bin folder: make_slcs_ers_envi, step_slcs_ers_envi and in the ROI_PAC_SCR : make_raw_ers.pl
We will include them in the next update of StaMPS.

Cheers,

David

Hi!

I would like to process ERS data in Envisat type format.
Unfortunately, the scripts make_slcs_ers_envi are step_slcs_ers_envi are not findable in the StaMPS versions available on the web. Can anybody send them to me via email or upload them here?

Kind regards,
Thomas

Hi,

I also don't have the scripts make_slc_ers_envi and step_slcs_ers_envi. I would be very glad if someone could send them to me via email or upload them here

Kind regards,

Hi!

In the meanwhile I have done it myself:

First, you have to download the two scripts (i) make_raw_ers.pl and (ii) new_parse_ers.c from: http://www.roipac.org/ERS
(i) has to be dropped here */ROI_PAC_3_0_1/ROI_PAC/INT_SCR
(ii) has to be compiled (gcc new_parse_ers.c -o new_parse_ers) and dropped here */ROI_PAC_3_0_1/ROI_PAC/INT_BIN
Then, you can use the StaMPS scripts which I have uploaded in the attachment of this post, by dropping them here */stamps/StaMPS_v3.2.1/bin

Kind regards,
Thomas

Hi Thomas, could you upload the two scripts for me too?

I have the same problem with my ERS data in Envisat format.

Thanks a lot!

Did anyone try to use the 'make_raw_ers.pl' to merge 2 continues frame in same track?

It work for one frame, but somehow I couldn't get a merges image after 'step_slc_ers_envi',
even I put 2 SAR_IM__0PXDLR19981202* files in the same folder.

Can someone provide me an idea?

Thanks.

Dear Thomas

Could you please upload the make_raw_ers.pl and new_parse_ers.c files in this? I couldn't find and download them from your suggested link. Actually, I need to use for ERS processing.

Best regards
Mirzadeh

Hi Mirzadeh,

find attached all files you need:
(i) make_raw_ers.pl and (ii) new_parse_ers.c (originally downloaded from: http://www.roipac.org/ERS)

(i) has to be dropped here */ROI_PAC_3_0_1/ROI_PAC/INT_SCR
(ii) has to be compiled (gcc new_parse_ers.c -o new_parse_ers) and dropped here */ROI_PAC_3_0_1/ROI_PAC/INT_BIN
Then, you can use the two StaMPS bash scripts in the attachment, by dropping them here */stamps/StaMPS_v3.2.1/bin (note that I haven't test it with the 3.3.b1 version)

Kind regards,
Thomas
