GAMMA Questions

If you ever want to import a GAMMA generated SLC file in SARscape this is one option to go:

SARscape > Import Data > Generic Binary

Data Type: Complex integer 16
Data Units: Intensity
Byte Order: MSBF
Number of Lines: <azimuth lines> from .par file
Number of Columns: <range samples> from .par file

A file containing 2 bands is created. To transform this into a single band file (common way of display):

SARscape > General Tools > Transform Raster Data

Data Type: Complex 32
Data Units: Leave the Old Unit
Byte Order: LSBF

There is one drawback:
One can view the file, but so far cannot use it for further processing since the special SARscape header file (*.sml) is still missing. So far nobody has taken the effort to create this (automatically by calling a script?) from the GAMMA header file.
