Roadmaps

 

This page highlights the main planned evolutions of the Sentinel-1 processing baseline.

 

End of 2022 - IPF 3.60

Update of Sentinel-1 IPF (SAR processor) to version 3.60.

This version of the processor will introduce changes of product format described in the Sentinel-1 product specification (version 3.12) available Here

The following main changes will be introduced:

• general improvment of robustness of the processing (Level 1 and Level 2)
• ensure complete coverage in range of the denoising vectors for GRD products
• annotation of the complete set of Level 0 products used as input of the processing
• adding some additional global variables in the Level 2 NetCDF content
• using a new coastline in the Level 2 processing (OpenStreetMap instead of GSHHS)
• introducing quicklooks of Level2 Wind and Radial Velocity Measurements for TOPS and Stripmap products

Sample products will be made available before the deployment of this version of the processor.
