Precise Retrieval of Sentinel-1 Data by Minimizing the Redundancy With Greedy Algorithm

With a widespread adoption of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observations in Earth sciences, the volume of annual data updates has soared to petabyte scales. Consequently, the accurate retrieval and efficient storage of SAR data have become pressing concerns. The existing data searching method exhib...

description With a widespread adoption of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) observations in Earth sciences, the volume of annual data updates has soared to petabyte scales. Consequently, the accurate retrieval and efficient storage of SAR data have become pressing concerns. The existing data searching method exhibits significant redundancy, leading to wasteful consumption of bandwidth and storage resources. Aiming to address this issue, we present here an optimized retrieval method grounded in a greedy algorithm, which can substantially reduce redundant data by approximately 20–65% while ensuring comprehensive data coverage over the areas of interest. By significantly minimizing redundant data, the proposed method markedly enhances data acquisition efficiency and conserves storage space. Validation experiments with Sentinel-1 data, employing various keyhole markup language scope files as inputs, affirm the effectiveness and reliability of the method. The application of the proposed method is expected to pave the way for efficient data management and fully automatic InSAR processing.
