Python module to use volumetric scattering at C-band to calculate snow depths from Sentinel-1 imagery using Lieven et al.'s 2021 technique.
The relevant papers for this repository technique are:

# Add main repo to path if you haven't added with conda-develop

# this will be where your results are saved

# this will generate a tuple of dates from the previous August 1st to this date
dates = get_input_dates('2021-04-01') # run on all s1 images from (2020-08-01, 2021-04-01) in this example

If you are running out of memory or running over multiple degrees of latitude this code snippet should get you started on batch processing swathes.
from shapely import geometry
from itertools import product
for lon_min, lat_min in product(range(-117, -113), range(43, 46)):
area = shapely.geometry.box(lon_min, lat_min, lon_min + 1, lat_min + 1)
out_nc = Path(f'~/Desktop/spicy-test/swath_{lon_min}-{lon_min + 1}_{lat_min}-{lat_min + 1}.nc').expanduser()
if out_nc.exists():
continue
spicy_ds = retrieve_snow_depth(area = area, dates = dates,
work_dir = Path('~/scratch/spicy-lowman-quadrant/data/').expanduser(),
job_name = f'spicy-lowman-{lon_min}-{lon_min + 1}_{lat_min}-{lat_min + 1}', # v1
existing_job_name = f'spicy-lowman-{lon_min}-{lon_min + 1}_{lat_min}-{lat_min + 1}', # v1
debug=False,
outfp=out_nc)
