Sentinel-1 thumbnails can be mirrored or upside down due to 'orbit direction' or 'looking side' #135

Open bo-lu opened 5 months ago

bo-lu commented 5 months ago

According to: https://sentinels.copernicus.eu/web/sentinel/faq

Some Copernicus Sentinel-1 images may appear mirrored when opened in the Copernicus Sentinel-1 toolbox. This is an effect of the acquisition geometry: the mirroring effect may be present or not depending on the combination of orbit (descending or ascending) and looking side (left or right).

I noticed that this record's thumbnail is mirrored: https://app-dev.geo.ca/result?id=eodms-sentinel-1-0b3a10ba-6a40-4ddd-ada3-f5e6b38c5cfd&lang=en

Is it possible to un-mirror or flip the thumbnail so that they are in the correct orientation?

Test case to illustrate a mirror image. Notice the island is mirrored
