Blog post: Introduction to Synthetic-Aperture Radar (SAR)
Are you new or interested in SAR? In this blog post/interview, you will understand:
🛰 What is SAR?
🛰 Why is the title "synthetic aperture" added to the radar? Why can't we just use a radar?
🛰 Is SAR an active or passive sensor?
🛰 What can you do with SAR?
🛰 Can we make accurate digital elevation models?
🛰 How does SAR penetrate through clouds?
🛰 What happens if a lot of SAR sensor are working in the same geographic are?
🛰 What about return times, orbits, and the height of the satellite?
🛰 What are some use cases for SAR?
...and much more!
