Sentinel-1A (2014/12/31, Camargue), EW, GRD, MR, VV-polarized, descending orbit, SNAP pre-processed data (+ additional SKYRON reference wind) for SARWIND LG-Mod (v4.01)

A zipped folder containing pre-processed data from a Sentinel-1 SAR image by using the Sentinel Application Platform (SNAP), ver. 3.0.3, distributed by the European Space Agency (ESA). The reference wind components provided by the Numerical Weather Model (NWM) SKYRON is also added in the folder.

These Earth Observation (EO) data can be used as inputs to the SARWIND LGMod algorithm, ver. 4.01, developed by Rana Fabio Michele (2014-2016), with the aim at retrieving the sea surface wind field by exploiting the single co-polarized Sentinel-1 image available.

In particular, the latter is the Sentinel-1, Extra Wide Swath Mode, Ground Range, Multi-look, Detected, Medium Resolution, Vertical polarisation on transmit, Vertical polarisation on receive, Descending orbit, C-band SAR image, acquired on the 31st Dec 2014, 05:51:53.
