Lead & Trail Times

When the Lead & Trail Times constraint is active all acquisitions will be padded with additional time guards as defined in the Lead and Trail time parameters. The time guards will be calculated adding to the minimum swath duration required.

If the sensor is defined with Framing and “Keep Frame Boundaries” is ON, the Frames will be rounded ensure complete frames with the likely result that the Lead & Trail Times are increased additionally.

The time guards can be defined as a fixed value plus a value proportional to the look angle.
