Sentinel-1 Orbit File Error and Oil Spill Detection

I don’t think all updates are installed correctly, because both problems can be tracked down to two very specific problems which have been fixed in recent updates.

  1. The Orbit file issue was discussed (and largely resolved) here: Orbit file timeout (March 2021) (the source for orbit files has been updated)
  2. The freezing of the Oil spill detection is caused by the changed location of SRTM 3Sec data which also has been fixed by a recent update: A process related to digital elevation models is taking forever to finish

Please check if you have installed SNAP 8 and then select menu > Help > Check for updates

You can check which version/update you are using via the menu > Help > About SNAP
It should be S1TBX version 8.0.3
