Question on s1 images pre-processing #4

Hello,

thank you very much for providing this very nice dataset ! I am sure there has been a tremendous amount of work behind this.

I just have one question : I would like to use s1s2_water as a training dataset and apply the model to other images (like Copernicus freely avalable data), so I would like to know what pre-processing steps you performed on your images. Especially for the s1 images.

In your paper you write "The Sentinel-1 images are geometrically corrected and radiometrically calibrated according to the method described by Twele et al. [33]." And [33] states « After data pre-processing using the S1TBX, the calibrated data are filtered to reduce SAR inherent speckle noise. » Since there are many de-speckling filters implemented in the S1TBX (ESA Sentinel-1 toolbox), can I ask wich one you chose and with which parameters ?

Thanks again for releasing this dataset which will allow great progress in water bodies detection !

All the best

Dear @laetitialalla , thanks for raising this issue. We have just released the respective SNAP preprocessing graph that should include all the required details and enable the user to reproduce the Sentinel-1 preprocessed images.
