Sentinel-1 Single Look Complex (SLC) products include three sub-swaths, each containing many individual burst SLCs. Working at the burst level provides a couple of key benefits:

1. The coverage of a burst is the same for every orbit of the satellite, and

2. The geographic coverage of bursts is smaller, thereby decreasing processing time and cost.

Learn how to work with Sentinel-1 Burst products in this Sentinel-1 Burst tutorial.
