Getting your data to UNAVCO
  1. JAXA Proposals
    • The JAXA AUIG2 interface that WInSAR used to automate data downloads is no longer available and an alternative solution has not been found. PIs will need to download the data themselves then contact winsar@unavco.org to arrange to transfer the data to UNAVCO for ingestion into the WInSAR system
  2. DLR and ASI Proposals
    • Once you order data with the space agency, your data will be automatically downloaded from the FTP once available
  3. If you already ordered and acquired the data for your proposal, contact winsar@unavco.org to arrange how to get the data uploaded to UNAVCO

You can access the data through the UNAVCO SAR Data Search GUI. You can see and download all the data for your proposal by filtering with the Collection Name. Most convenient is the use of the SSARA command line client for automating data download from UNAVCO.
