PARAMETERS
CDSAR is controlled by the following global parameters:
Name Prompt Count Type
CDDIR CD Directory 1-64 Char
FILE Database File Name 1-64 Char
CDIC CD Input Channel list 1-2 Int
DBOC CD Output Channel list 1-2 Int
TEX1 Database Descriptive Text 1 0-64 Char
SARTYPE SAR Type: ERS/RADARSAT 3-8 Char
FLIPSAR Flip Scan SAR Image 0-3 Char
REPORT Report Mode: TERM/OFF/filename 1-64 Char
The following parameters receive output:
ORBIT Orbit Segment 1 Int
A0SEG SAR Scaling Offset Segment 1 Int
ASCALSEG SAR Scaling Gain Segment 1 Int
DBGC Database Ground Control Segment 1 Int
CDDIR
Specifies the name of the CD directory. All files should be
contained inside the directory.
EASI>CDDIR="cddir"
See example on how to enter the CDDIR for different operating
systems.
FILE
Specifies the name of the PCIDSK file to receive data. This file
will be created automatically and must not already exist.
EASI>FILE="filespec"
CDIC
Specifies the list of channels to read from the CD. For each channel
specified, a channel will be created on the PCIDSK file (FILE).
EASI>CDIC=i,j,...,p
- Ranges of channels can be specified with negative values. For
example: {1,-4,10} is internally expanded to {1,2,3,4,10}.
- Up to 16 channels can be specified.
- Duplicate channels are NOT allowed.
- For complex data image, CDIC(1) corresponds to the real image and
CDIC(2) corresponds to the imaginary image.
DBOC
Optionally specifies the output channel. This parameter is only for
single look complex data. If DBOC is set to 1, the real and imagery
part of the single look complex data will be converted into an
intensity image. If DBOC is set to 1 and 2, the real and imagery
parts will be stored separately into output channels 1 and 2.
EASI>DBOC=1 | convert the single look complex data into
| an intensity image
EASI>DBOC=1,2 | store real and imagery part separately
| into 1 and 2
EASI>DBOC= | defaults to 1
TEX1
Optionally specifies a line of text describing the file. Typically
this would contain information identifying the location of the data
and the CD reference number.
EASI>TEX1="string"
SARTYPE
Specifies whether the image is an ERS image or RADARSAT image.
EASI>SARTYPE="ERS" | the image is an ERS image
EASI>SARTYPE="RADARSAT" | the image is a RADARSAT image
FLIPSAR
If the input image is RADARSAT Scan SAR, this parameter specifies
whether the Scan SAR should be flipped north up and east right.
Default is YES. If FLIPSAR is set to NO, the user will not be able
to generate ortho image correctly using PCI satellite modelling
software.
EASI>FLIPSAR= | Flip image north up and east right
EASI>FLIPSAR="YES" | Flip image north up and east right
EASI>FLIPSAR="NO" | Do not flip image
REPORT
Specifies where the CD information report should be directed. This
report contains CD header and orbital information.
EASI>REPORT="filename"
EASI>REPORT= | defaults to terminal output
Note: The following names have special meaning:
EASI>REPORT="TERM" | generates reports on your terminal
EASI>REPORT="DISK" | generates reports on file "IMPRPT.LST"
EASI>REPORT="OFF" | cancels report generation
ORBIT
This parameter receives the number of the segment in which the
orbital information was saved.
A0SEG
This parameter receives the number of the array segment created to
receive the SAR scaling offset read from the "Radiometric Data"
record, if one was processed.
ASCALSEG
This parameter receives the number of the array segment created to
receive the SAR scaling gain table read from the "Radiometric Data"
record, if one was processed.
DBGC
This parameter receives the number of the segment of Ground Control
Points read from the SAR data records. If the GCP information is not
available from the SAR data records, no GCP segment will be
produced. If the GCP information is available, up to 255 geographic
("LONG/LAT") GCPs are produced.
