/eodata/auxdata/SRTMGL1/ is not available on CDSE

[JeroenVerstraelen]

The SRTM DEM data is no longer available on CDSE and OTC. CloudFerro has acknowledged that there is an issue and is working on a fix. A current workaround is to explicitly use COPERNICUS_30 in the sar_backscatter process:

s1.ard_normalized_radar_backscatter(elevation_model="COPERNICUS_30")
s1..sar_backscatter(elevation_model="COPERNICUS_30")

• Committed a fix that temporarily disables SRTM as the default DEM layer for sar_backscatter. It now uses COPERNICUS_30 instead.

Adjusted batch_job_test.py on os_creodias_openeo_k8s to now use COPERNICUS_30 DEM by default.

Issue has been fixed by CloudFerro and the fix is now live on CDSE prod. So this issue can be closed.
