InSARHub

InSARHub is a modular Python framework for automated InSAR and time-series processing.

The primary goal of this package is to provide a streamlined and user-friendly InSAR processing experience across multiple satellite products.

Web UI

InSARHub includes a self-hosted web interface that covers the full InSAR workflow — from scene search and download through interferogram processing to time-series analysis.

insarhub-app

Open http://localhost:8000 to access the UI.

Features

Panel	What it does
Search & Download	Draw an AOI on the map, search Sentinel-1 SLC stacks, download scenes and precise orbit files
Processor	Build and edit the interferogram pair network with quality scoring; view S1 coherence decay maps; submit to HyP3; monitor and download results
Analyzer	Run MintPy time-series analysis step by step; edit the network post-ingest; inspect diagnostic overview layers
Results Viewer	Overlay the velocity map on the basemap; click any pixel to plot its displacement time series

All data stays on your machine — InSARHub runs a local FastAPI server and delivers a modern React frontend directly in your browser.

See the Web UI documentation for a full walkthrough.

Usage

Downloader:

from insarhub import Downloader

• View available downloaders

  Downloader.available()

• Create downloader

  dl = Downloader.create('S1_SLC',
                          intersectsWith=[-113.05, 37.74, -112.68, 38.00],
                          start='2020-01-01',
                          end='2020-12-31',
                          relativeOrbit=100,
                          frame=466,
                          workdir='path/to/dir')

• Search

  results = dl.search()

• Filter

  filter_result = dl.filter(start='2020-02-01')

• Select interferogram pairs

  from insarhub.utils import plot_pair_network
  pairs, baselines, scene_bperp = dl.select_pairs(dt_max=96, pb_max=150)
  fig = plot_pair_network(pairs, baselines, scene_bperp)
  fig.show()

• Download

  dl.download()

Processor:

from insarhub import Processor

• View available processors

  Processor.available()

• Create Processor

  processor = Processor.create('Hyp3_InSAR', workdir='/your/work/path', pairs=pairs)

• Submit Jobs

  jobs = processor.submit()

• Refresh Jobs

  jobs = processor.refresh()

• Download Succeeded Jobs

  processor.download()

Analyzer

from insarhub import Analyzer

• View available analyzers

  Analyzer.available()

• Create Analyzer

  analyzer = Analyzer.create('Hyp3_SBAS', workdir="/your/work/dir")

• Prepare data

  analyzer.prep_data()

• Run time-series analysis

  analyzer.run()

CLI

InSARHub includes a command-line interface for running the full pipeline without writing Python code, suitable for HPC batch jobs and scripted workflows.

insarhub <command> [options]

End-to-end example

# Search scenes and select interferogram pairs
insarhub downloader -N S1_SLC \
    --AOI -113.05 37.74 -112.68 38.00 \
    --start 2020-01-01 --end 2020-12-31 \
    --stacks 100:466 \
    -w /data/bryce \
    --select-pairs

# Submit pairs to HyP3 (auto-reads stack_p*_f*.json from workdir subfolders)
insarhub processor -N Hyp3_InSAR  -w /data/bryce submit

# Wait for jobs and download results automatically
insarhub processor -w /data/bryce watch

# Run MintPy time-series analysis
insarhub analyzer -N Hyp3_SBAS -w /data/bryce run

Commands

Command	Description
insarhub downloader	Search scenes, select interferogram pairs, and download data
insarhub processor	Submit and manage InSAR processing jobs
insarhub analyzer	Run time-series analysis on processed interferograms
insarhub utils	Helper utilities (pair selection, network plot, SLURM, ERA5, clip)

Use insarhub <command> --help for full option details, or see the CLI Reference.
