Abstract

Input products and results for the paper Reconstructed acquisition geometry for Copernicus openEO Sentinel-1 interferograms and its effect on MintPy time series (Burak Can Kara, submitted to Advances in Space Research). They allow the openEO2Mintpy software to be tested on the same data and the reported MintPy results to be checked. Data. Two Sentinel-1 burst stacks over Merzifon, northern Türkiye (VV polarisation, pairs up to 24 days apart), generated between 1 and 3 October 2026 with the published openEO process sentinel1_sar_interferogram of the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem: an ascending stack (relative orbit 14, burst 28163, IW2; 30 acquisitions from 25 November 2025 to 18 May 2026; 57 pairs) and a descending stack (relative orbit 167, burst 357387, IW1; 29 acquisitions from 24 November 2025 to 17 May 2026; 55 pairs). Archives. 001, 002: the openEO GeoTIFFs of the two stacks, the job manifests and the job results (signed links redacted) 003: Sentinel-1 precise orbit files, ERA5 pressure-level files and the merged NASADEM DEM 004: output of openEO2Mintpy v1.0.0 (sidecar metadata, incidence and azimuth angle rasters, stack metadata, alignment reports) 005 to 008: MintPy runs with the reconstructed metadata, without and with ERA5 tropospheric correction 009, 010: control runs with the metadata that MintPy's SNAP reader derives from the products' SNAP header 011: sensitivity tests of the DEM-error estimates 012: the scripts that produced the tables, figures and numbers of the paper, unchanged as run, with their result files and logs 000a_README.md describes the files and how to reproduce the results. Archives larger than 2 GiB are stored as parts (NAME.zip.001, NAME.zip.002, …) to be joined in order before extraction; 000b_SHA256SUMS.txt and 000c_SHA256SUMS_parts.txt hold the SHA-256 checksums of the archives and of the uploaded files. Software. openEO2Mintpy v1.0.0 (https://github.com/bcankara/openEO2Mintpy/releases/tag/v1.0.0), MintPy 1.6.3 (commit f02ee97), PyAPS 0.3.7. Data sources and attribution. Contains modified Copernicus Sentinel data (2025–2026), processed through the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem openEO service. Sentinel-1 precise orbits: Copernicus Sentinel-1 POD service (ESA), retrieved from the ASF s1-orbits bucket of the Registry of Open Data on AWS. Generated using Copernicus Climate Change Service information (ERA5, 2025–2026); neither the European Commission nor ECMWF is responsible for any use that may be made of the Copernicus information or data it contains. NASADEM Merged DEM Global 1 arc second V001, NASA JPL (2020), https://doi.org/10.5067/MEaSUREs/NASADEM/NASADEM_HGT.001.
