Description of proposed changes
This PR brings back the spatial referencing while calculating the sequential closure phase (which was removed in #922), for ARIA products only, to avoid the abnormal closure phase calculation result, as shown below. This is happening to ARIA products only, there is negligible impact on the interferogram stack processed with ISCE-2 from SLC (as @yjzhenglamarmota and I have tested before).
My guess is that the phase stitching applied during ARIA product preparation in ARIA-tools broke the temporal consistency of the native unwrapped phase (when used without spatial referencing). What do you think @sssangha @mgovorcin @dbekaert?
San Francisco Bay SenDT042 (downloaded from ARIA and processed with ARIA-tools)
Sierra Negra SenDT128 dataset (processed with isce2/topsStack)
