Getting started =============== If you haven't done so already, read :doc:`prerequisites` and follow the applicable steps. Processing the first waveform ----------------------------- If you are new to swath processing, it may be informative to follow the tutorial on (processing and) viewing a single waveform. While this is not the kind of data that you will need to analyze a glaciers evolution, this is its foundation. Knowledge about the smallest parts of the data can help you understand the larger picture. Find the tutorial in `scripts/tutorial__process_first_waveform.ipynb `_. Processing the first swath -------------------------- Similar to viewing a single waveform, you might wonder how swath data of a single track look like. Again, a single track will not tell you much about a glacier's evolution, but it may help to understand higher level data. `scripts/tutorial__process_first_swath.ipynb `_ will give you a hand using cryoswath to process a single track and visualize the data. General step-by-step tutorial ----------------------------- The general step-by-step tutorial takes you from processing a waveform to producing a map of elevation change trends. It balances understanding the background processes with quickly enabling to use cryoswath. Find the notebook in `scripts/tutorial__general_step-by-step.ipynb `_.
