A Python utility for downloading Sentinel-1 Orbit files from the Registry of Open Data on AWS.
>>> import s1_orbits>>> orbit_file = s1_orbits.fetch_for_scene('S1A_IW_SLC__1SDV_20230727T075102_20230727T075131_049606_05F70A_AE0A')>>> orbit_filePosixPath('S1A_OPER_AUX_POEORB_OPOD_20230816T080815_V20230726T225942_20230728T005942.EOF')
In order to easily manage dependencies, we recommend using dedicated project environments via Anaconda/Miniconda or Python virtual environments.
s1_orbits
can be installed into a conda environment with:
conda install -c conda-forge s1_orbits
or into a virtual environment with:
python -m pip install s1_orbits
s1-orbits provides one function - fetch_for_scene
- to download the "best available" orbit file for a given scene. This means it will download the AUX_POEORB file if it exists; otherwise, it will download the AUX_RESORB file. For a more full-featured API, see sentineleof or CDSE's APIs.
fetch_for_scene(scene: str, dir: Union[pathlib.Path, str] = '.') -> pathlib.Path""" For the given scene, downloads the AUX_POEORB file if available, otherwise downloads the AUX_RESORB file. Args: scene: The scene name for which to download the orbit file. dir: The directory that the orbit file should download into. Raises: InvalidSceneError: Thrown if the scene name is not a proper Sentinel-1 scene name. OrbitNotFoundError: Thrown if an orbit cannot be found for the provided scene. Returns: download_path: The path to the downloaded file. """
