GMT5SAR InSAR - Sentinel-1 TOPSAR

GMT5SAR is an open source (GNU General Public License) InSAR processing system. This service provides standard 2-pass processing of a master product against one or more slave products.

EO sources supported:

  • Sentinel-1 SLC

Output specifications

For each generated interferogram (one per sub-swath) the following output files are provided:

  • Amplitude, phase, correlation, unwrapped phase, filtered phase, LOS displacement — image files in NetCDF format “.grd”
  • Corresponding files after geocoding with suffix “_ll.grd”
  • Postscript plots: “.ps”
  • Preview images “.tiff” and “.png”

This tutorial covers the typical InSAR processing to form an interferogram using two SAR images and a digital elevation model.

The GMT5SAR processing service can also process several pairs master/slave (same master).

Select the processing

  • Login to the platform (see user section)
  • Select the processing service “GMT5SAR InSAR - Sentinel-1 TOPSAR”:

The “GMT5SAR InSAR - Sentinel-1 TOPSAR” panel is displayed with parameters values to be filled-in.

Note

Parameters comes with default pre-filled values which are the same as the ones used in this tutorial, so you may skip the following section and directly use the pre-filled parameters.

Fill the parameters
