SICE: Sentinel-3 Snow and Ice Properties Retrieval
This release contains the script used for @AdrienWehrle 's NRT processing active in 2021, 2022 and 2023 and the so-called "showcase" reprocessing. It is being replaced by https://github.com/GEUS-SICE/SICE-EDC that uses PTEP2, SentinelHub and pySICEv2.1. The present release is for archiving purpose.
This data was used for the following study:
Box, J. E., Wehrlé, A., van As, D., Fausto, R. S., Kjeldsen, K. K., Dachauer, A., et al. (2022). Greenland ice sheet rainfall, heat and albedo feedback impacts from the mid-August 2021 atmospheric River. Geophysical Research Letters, 49, e2021GL097356. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021GL097356
Wehrlé, A.; Box, J. E.; Niwano, M.; Anesio, A. M.; Fausto, R. S. Greenland bare-ice albedo from PROMICE automatic weather station measurements and Sentinel-3 satellite observations. GEUS Bulletin, 2021, 47. https://doi.org/10.34194/geusb.v47.5284
And to produce the following datasets:

This release is an improvement from SICEv2.3.1.
This toolchain does the following:
- Fetch S3 OLCI & SLSTR products
- Process OLCI & SLSTR using SNAP GPT
- Process using pySICE
- Build daily mosaic
Specificities of this release:
- Designed for SNAP8 and tie-point geocoding
- Using pySICEv1.4
