Hi
when i am running Mintpy for SBAS PRocessing i am providing the watermask.rdr file, created using wbd.py, has the whole land part masked out in the results. Can you please help me? Why is it so?

Here is my cfg file
# vim: set filetype=cfg:
##------------------------------- ISCE/topsStack ----------------------##
mintpy.compute.maxMemory = 20 #[float > 0.0], auto for 4, max memory to allocate in GB
#ssaraopt = --platform=SENTINEL-1A,SENTINEL-1B -r 128 -f 589,590,591,592,593  -e 2017-07-01
#sentinelStack.boundingBox = '32.9 33.05 73.55 73.85'
#sentinelStack.subswath         =   # comment
#sentinelStack.numConnections   = 4   # comment
#sentinelStack.azimuthLooks     = 5   # comment
#sentinelStack.rangeLooks = 15  # comment
#sentinelStack.filtStrength     = 0.4  # comment
#sentinelStack.unwMethod        = snaphu  # comment
#sentinelStack.coregistration   = auto  # comment
##subset.y0:y1,x0:x1 = 1150:1600,1070:1670

mintpy.troposphericDelay.method = no  #[pyaps / height_correlation / gacos / no], auto for pyaps
## Notes for gacos:

mintpy.network.coherenceBased  = yes

####.4 is best but sometimes we do not get good results based on this..

mintpy.network.excludeDate     = auto  #[20080520,20090817 / no], auto for no
mintpy.networkInversion.maskDataset   = coherence #[coherence / connectComponent / offsetSNR / no], auto for no
mintpy.networkInversion.maskThreshold = 0.1 #[0-inf], auto for 0.4
