Antarctic Field Processing - npolar/RemoteSensing GitHub Wiki

1. Go to ftp.ksat.no – you recognize the scenes since they will have “U23” “U20” “U7” and “U20” in the filename.
   
2. If the above does not work, alternatively use customer browser as described here: http://wiki.npolar.no/wiki/index.php/Jordobservasjon#Old_method
   
3. Download the images above for 14th and 15th
   
4. Process them using this updated script: https://github.com/npolar/RemoteSensing/blob/master/ExtractRadarsat_DML.py
   
5. Move all files (processed and original-zip) to \berner\satellittdata\Radarsat\2013
   
6. Email only the small(!) jpegs (“RS2*_SMALL.jpg) to Harvey Goodwin
   
7. Put all Dec 14-15 images (original zip plus GeoTIFF and JPEG and aux/wld…. ) on a USB-stick (10GByte should be enough) or harddisk – IT can give you one.
   
8. Plan A: Jon Hugo Strømseng needs to receive the USB or hard disc with the images on Monday Dec 16th; he takes this to Cape Town and gives it to Svein Henriksen, who will meet Harvey at Troll
   
9. Plan B: in case Svein already left before Jon Hugo meets him in Cape Town, put the images on ftp and Harvey can download them.
   

1. Download image from KSAT as in 4.1. and/or 4.2. above
   

2. Use https://github.com/npolar/RemoteSensing/blob/master/ExtractRadarsat_DML.py
   

3. In this script change filename in line 194(?): filelist = glob.glob(r'Z:\Radarsat\2013\RS2_20130815*.zip')
   

4. Create small jpg by running (in QGIS or command line):
   

gdal_translate -outsize 6% 6% -of JPEG Z:/Radarsat/2013/RS2_20131101_033629_0003_U76_HH_SGF_291590_2002_9072098_Cal_Spk_TC_EPSG3031_HH.jpg \
C:/Users/max/Desktop/RS2_20131101_033629_EPSG3031_HH_small.jpg

5. Adjust outsize value if resulting jpeg is bigger than 200kB
   

6. Send to Harvey via Iridium and to npolar adress
   

7. Someone/Svein(?) at logistics should receive the original GeoTIFF, JPEG and Raw files, they are located at \berner\satellittdata\Radarsat\2013
