Developer Cloud Sandbox TerraSAR-X geocoding with GAMMA

The GAMMA SAR and Interferometry Software is a collection of programs that allows processing of SAR, interferometric SAR (InSAR) and differential interferometric SAR (DInSAR) data for airborne and spaceborne SAR systems. The software supports the entire processing from raw data to high level products such as digital elevation models, displacement maps, point target analysis and landuse maps.

Getting Started

To run this application you will need a Developer Cloud Sandbox with GAMMA that can be either requested from:

• ESA Geohazards Exploitation Platform for GEP early adopters;

A Developer Cloud Sandbox provides Earth Sciences data access services, and helper tools for a user to implement, test and validate a scalable data processing application. It offers a dedicated virtual machine and a Cloud Computing environment. The virtual machine runs in two different lifecycle modes: Sandbox mode and Cluster mode. Used in Sandbox mode (single virtual machine), it supports cluster simulation and user assistance functions in building the distributed application. Used in Cluster mode (a set of master and slave nodes), it supports the deployment and execution of the application with the power of distributed computing for data processing over large datasets (leveraging the Hadoop Streaming MapReduce technology).

Installation

Pre-requisites

TBW

Using the releases

Log on the Developer Cloud Sandbox.

Download the rpm package from https://github.com/geohazards-tep/dcs-geocode-tsx-gamma/releases.

Install the downloaded package by running these commands in a shell:

sudo yum -y install dcs-geocode-tsx-gamma-<version>.x86_64.rpm

Using the development version

Log on the Developer Cloud Sandbox and run these commands in a shell:

git clone git@github.com:geohazards-tep/dcs-geocode-tsx-gamma.git
cd dcs-geocode-tsx-gamma
mvn install
sudo yum install libxml2-2.9.0-3.3

Submitting the workflow

Run this command in a shell:

ciop-run

Or invoke the Web Processing Service via the Sandbox dashboard or the Geohazards Thematic Exploitation platform providing a stack of TerraSAR-X product URLs.
