We encountered an inconsistency in an orbit-descending product, where two Level 2 products, derived from the same Level 0 acquisition, had different NRCS values (here VV is shown) :
According to the "RCM Image Product Format Definition" (Section 4.2.1), it's crucial to correctly align the indices when reading Look-Up Tables (LUTs). We discovered that the alignment was performed twice for the LUTs, in the assign_index and flip_sample_da functions, respectively.
By modifying the flip_sample_da function as follows:
Use case 1
