Disconnected network

[Carolina Hurtado]

Hello everyone,

I processed a time series with Sentinel-1 data (~10 years, ~200 images). 

When I created the interferometric stack with ISCE2, I indicated that I wanted 5 connections. It created the interferograms as expected (kinda). I imagine that the bursts are not complete, then the results for the time series were incomplete, becaue it was showing deformation for only 4 dates. I checked the folder with the interferograms and there were differences in the data per burst. Then, I changed the bbox to a smaller area and it worked better because uses most of the images (~150).

Now, my question to the MintPy community. I processed the time series and there are dates that do not connect to each other (I imagine due to mentioned problems), still, there is a time series. Is it correct to interpret the final velocities or are these velocities only for a certain part of the time series (maybe the final dates)? 

The displacements are calculated for each date, but as the network is not fully connected, I am unsure how mintpy estimates this motions.

I was also thinking on re-processing the data with a smaller bbox in ISCE, but defining the overlap region for all the images is a little bit complicated.

Any suggestion is welcommed, thanks!
