(ENVISAT.ASA.WS__0P)

The WS Mode Level 0 product consists of time-ordered AISPs collected while the instrument is in WS Mode. The echo samples in the AISPs have been compressed to 4 bits/sample using FBAQ. This is a high-rate, wide swath (ScanSAR) mode so data is only acquired for partial orbit segments and is composed of data from five image swaths (SS1 to SS5). The Level 0 product is produced systematically for all data acquired within this mode.
The objective of this product is to offer Level 0 data for possible images processing on another processing site. It includes mandatory information for SAR processing.
Data Size: 400 km across track x 400 km along track
Spatial coverage: |
90 N, 90 S, 180 W, 180 E |
Temporal coverage: | 2002-10-28 - 2012-04-08 |
Data is available online upon submission of a Service Request for the (A)SAR On The Fly Service.
