SARFineDeformationGrid

geo_grid step for Diapason chain.

Description

This application executes the geo_grid step with three internal applications : SARCorrelationGrid, SARDEMGrid and SARCorrectionGrid. The aim is to obtain a fine deformation grid between master and slave SAR images.

This application has several output images and supports “multi-writing”. Instead of computing and writing each image independently, the streamed image blocks are written in a synchronous way for each output. The output images will be computed strip by strip, using the available RAM to compute the strip size, and a user defined streaming mode can be specified using the streaming extended filenames (type, mode and value). Note that multi-writing can be disabled using the multi-write extended filename option: &multiwrite=false, in this case the output images will be written one by one. Note that multi-writing is not supported for MPI writers.
