forrestfwilliams / UAVSAR_InSAR

A repository that contains a workflow for performing InSAR timeseries analyses with UAVSAR data. The workflow is primarily used by Forrest Williams to perform fault and landslide deformation analysis within his NASA JPL internship, but others may find the workflow useful as well.

UAVSAR_Metadata_file #2

Hi Forrest! How are you doing?

I've been working with UAVSAR data and I processed the interferometric pairs by using ISCEv2.5.3. Then, I decided to used the MintPy software for the Time Series Analysis but I had a problem on extracting the metadata file (file.src). This is because, as I have checked, MintPy looks for a "data.dat" or "data" file (for UAVSAR ---> isceutils.py) to performe such process. I saw that you obtained from ISCE2 and used on MintPy the "**/referenceShelve/data.dat" file instead of "/referenceShelve/data_**" one, this way the prep_isce.py works well on MintPy, not my case. How did you solve this issue? Did you convert the "data" file to an ASCII data.dat? I mean, what am I missing on the process?

Thank you! Ignacio.

Hi Ignacio,

Sorry I haven't been keeping track of this repo recently. Where are you acquiring data from? I did most of this work while I was an intern at JPL, and I got my data from the JPL UAVSAR website. The data available there is nicely formatted for time-series analyses, but I'm unsure who can register for their data portal. Alternatively, you might find the uavsar_pytools repository helpful. @ZachKeskinen, you have any thoughts on this?

Hi Forrest,

Don't worry man! Than you so much for your answer! I got my data from the JPL UAVSAR website as well, but it seems that this is not the problem. I talk to Dr. Fielding personaly and he told me that he had trouble with loading one of his previous UAVSAR stacks into MintPy. He also mentioned that he created a new Anaconda environment on their Linux computer and installed the released versions of “isce2” and “mintpy” together . This way, he processed a new segment of UAVSAR data in that environment, so that MintPy was able to read the data in that environment. Now I'm working on installing the released versions of “isce2” and “mintpy” together as he suggested. Let's see what happen!

Igancio.
