Design of automate SAR processing system in LAPAN to support easier and fast data services

Abstract

One of the Indonesia’s National Institute of Aeronautics and Space (LAPAN) task is to supply and distribute remote sensing data based on Indonesia national needs as mandated by space law no 21 year 2013. One of the satellite image acquired and distributed by LAPAN including TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X, a twin satellite from Germany launched in 2007. Acquisition of the TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X satellite began in 2017 with aim for coverage of whole Indonesian area. With respect to the data size and data availability, an automate data processing method is needed to process all of the available TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X data. This paper will discuss a system design that automate the LAPAN’s TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X data processing and method of presenting the data to the users as tiled data.
