Abstract
Vertex is the Alaska Satellite Facility’s (ASF) data search application for remotely sensed imagery of the earth, providing convenient and powerful discovery and download of SAR data, as well as direct access to thematic datasets.
ASF Datapool contains pre-processed synthetic aperture radar data and images from several satellite and aircraft platforms. Download SAR data, browse images, and relevant metadata.
Vertex provides a rich, intuitive interface for searching by a number of criteria, including
importing geographic regions in several ways, dates and repeating seasonal periods, and many dataset-specific options such as product types, beam modes, polarizations, and more. Products can be downloaded directly, or in bulk quantities for large numbers of products.
