The new Copernicus DEM replaces the SRTM as the default free and open Digital Elevation Model.<\/p>\n
Sentinel-1 Toolbox<\/h2>\n
The Sentinel-1 Toolbox continues to support most SAR missions with updates to the Sentinel-1 format and support for Cosmo-Skymed SG, Gaofen-3 and Spacety. ARD functionality has been enhanced with the addition of a Noise Power Image and Gamma-to-Sigma ratio image in Terrain Flattening and the estimation of noise equivalent beta0, sigma0 and gamma0 in Thermal Noise Removal. InSAR functionality now includes ionospheric estimation and correction using a splitbandwidth approach and retrieval of Vertical and E W motion components from a pair of interferograms. Polarimetric processing now includes Kennaugh Matrix, and Huynen, Krogager, Cameron, Yang decompositions as well as Radar Vegetation Indices.<\/p>\n
Sentinel-2 Toolbox<\/h2>\n
The GDAL version is updated from 3.0.0 to 3.2.1. Also, a plugin for COG writer was added. Some corrections were made for visual artifacts noticed in produced images when writing in parallel, from multiple threads, with GDAL. SNAP 9 allows users to configure which installed GDAL distribution is used by SNAP (when the user desires to use an installed distribution instead of the internal one, and there are several GDAL versions installed).
\nImprovements were made for operators whose UI was not well functioning in Graph Builder (Reflectance to Radiance, Spectral Angle Mapper, Multi-size Mosaic, GeFolki Co-registration).
\nWindowed Reading of Products is now available in Graph Builder. It allows specifying in Graph Builder, for read operation, a window (spatial subset) of either pixel coordinates or geographical coordinates, so that, the reader will read directly the region of interest as a full-fledged product.
\nNew plugins adapter for MAJA 4.5.3 and Sen2Cor 2.9 are added in SNAP menu.<\/p>\n
Sentinel-3 Toolbox<\/h2>\n
The Sentinel-3 Toolbox offers some new operators which are mainly dedicated for the pre-processing of Sentinel-3 data. There is the OLCI Anomaly Detection operator which can detect and flag anomalous pixels, an operator which harmonises the data of OLCI A and B and an operator which can perform Dark Object Subtraction (DOS) on optical data.
\nFor OLCI L2 Land and Water data the Quality Working Group (QWG) have defined recommended flags. They are now incorporated in the products as masks and should be considered when using the data. In addition, an operator is now available which makes MERIS 4th reprocessing data compatible with already existing operators. This allows to use the new data set with older operators. In SNAP8 the pixel-based geo-coding has been reimplemented, in this release further improvements have been achieved. Now the Sentinel-3 data uses the pixel-based geo-coding by default and not the tie-points anymore. Support for Landsat Collection-2 has been implemented. Supported are Level-1 and Level-2 data.<\/p>\n
