GRD-Border-Noise and Thermal noise removal are not working anymore since March 13. 2018

Thats interesting @paultcochrane - I would be interested to see if your installation can replicate the issue of data quality after thermal noise removal with the following image: S1A_IW_GRDH_1SDV_20180313T180532_20180313T180557_021000_0240E0_114C
My steps are as follows:

  1. Apply Restituted Orbits
  2. Border Noise removal
  3. Thermal Noise removal - this step produces the bad image in S-1 Thermal Noise removal introduces Artefacts in the image. I think this is related to the number 4 issue raised by @biocpu
    Thanks,
