Microwave Toolbox
#1

Hi,

I downloaded the orbit file for a Jan 4th S1 file and placed it in the location indicated by the help dialogue.

When I try to apply the orbit file I get the attached error.

If I try to Tops co-register the files, I get another orbit error

download the orbit file manually from the website you have mentioned, and place it in the orbit folder in your system. SNAP will recognise it automatically.

Hi Ben,

I downloaded the orbit file and put it in the specified directory. I still get the same error.

I have tried this procedure on both my work PC and home PC.

Any assistance is much appreciated as this is a barrier to my research.

have you tried the restituted orbits?

Yes Ben, I tried the restituted orbits and they worked.

Its a mystery to me why the precise orbit file does not work
