soil moisture mapping using UAVSAR

hi.I’m new with polsarpro and I would like to process GRD format of UAVSAR data in it.could anyone help me please?

I have documented my steps to import UAVSAR into PolSARpro here, please have a look: Polsarpro 6.0 error

@ABraun thanks a lot

@ABraun when I use arc map to load my geodatabase is like:


but when I use envi tu load my geodatabase is like the picture below and I don’t know which file should I import

how could I import my processed UAVSAR in any software and import my geodatabase too , to know the image value and pixel value of specific point?

I don’t know if ENVI can read the GDB format, because it was developed by ESRI.
Seems to be partly supported: https://www.harrisgeospatial.com/docs/backgroundremotedatasources.html#geodatabases

Where did you process your UAVSAR data so far? If you worked on it in PolSAR pro, you apply the range doppler terrain correction (in the SNAP menu), then you have a geocoded raster.

Hi.I want to know incidence angle information of UAVSAR data.could any one help me how can I access it?envi radar has option as the image but I don’t know how can I access to near and far range angle of UAVSAR data!

Depending on the product level you find information on the indicence angle and the number of pixels (samples and lines) in the metadata file.

@ABraun thanks for your answer but when I open the inc file in envi the error is:


Do you know is there any other way to have incidence angle of UAVSAR data?

where did you get your data from and what product level did you download?

I got my data from jpl.nasa wbsite and I downloaded the incidence angle and grd format of data.could I ask where did you search and have the link that you took a picture?

Are there any applications in POLSAR pro which can measure soil moisture directly.

you can try this one:

@ABraun In POLSARPRO 6.0 I was not able to find above interface, can you guide me how i get that option in PLOSAR Pro 6.0 (if possible steps). thank you for the your valuable information

it is available in PolSARpro Biomass edition: https://step.esa.int/main/download/polsarpro-v6-0-biomass-edition-toolbox-download/

Can any one guide me how to find Vegetation orientation (Pr) to find dielectric constant in retrieval of soil moisture From UAVSAR data in POLSARpro 6.0. (Part In red box)
Your guidance in this regard is highly appreciated.

I have no idea, sorry! Moisture mapping is a complex topic and the best source for this workflow is probably the publication where this figure was taken from.
But I expect that this cannot be done with a few clicks…

The screenshot has a incidence angle file which is in .inc file format. How can I read this file? Please suggest… I tried reading it with gdal library in python but it is not support it seems. Thank you in advance.

this data is provided by ASF - I can only link to their documentation

I have already gone through this but it doesn’t help much. Many thanks for your quick response.
