Sentinel-1 L0 RAW

Level-0 products serve as the foundational data sets, providing valuable information for further analysis and processing. These products encompass a range of data, offering single polarisation mode (either HH or VV) for general applications. However, for more advanced modes like SM, IW, and EW, Level-0 products go a step further by incorporating dual polarisation modes. This entails the inclusion of both HH+HV or VV+VH polarisation modes, granting researchers and analysts a comprehensive view of the target area.

To ensure accessibility and ease of use, the data within Level-0 products are conveniently organized. In the case of dual polarisation data, each polarisation mode is segregated into separate files within the Level-0 product. This segregation simplifies data handling, enabling users to focus on specific polarisation modes of interest without unnecessary complexity. By providing this detailed and structured data, Level-0 products facilitate the subsequent stages of data processing, analysis, and interpretation, empowering users to extract valuable insights from the rich information contained within.
