Sentinel-1 SLC preprocessing library for Python.
- Per-burst Sentinel-1 TOPS SLC preprocessing — independent processing of each burst, no frame stitching
- Geometric coregistration — bursts aligned to a reference via radar-to-geographic transforms with differential topo phase correction between reference and repeat geometries
- Dual-polarization support — all polarization channels (VV+VH or HH+HV) processed together
- Precise orbit integration — automatic application of restituted and precise orbit files
- DEM preparation — geocoding and coordinate transformations to a common geographic grid
- User-defined coordinate system and resolution — output in any EPSG projection at any resolution, from small large-area overviews to precise local analysis grids
- Solid Earth tidal phase correction — per-date tidal displacement projected onto the radar line-of-sight using IERS 2003 solid Earth tide model and satellite look vectors, computed efficiently via 2×2 radar-grid corner interpolation
- Geocoded Zarr output — burst stacks stored as Zarr v3 with per-pixel azi, rng, and elevation
