An Introduction to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Its Applications
Part 1: Introduction to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
ARSET Instructors: Erika Podest
Objectives:
-Identify radar remote sensing signal characteristics
-Recognize how the radar signal interacts with the surface
-Interpret a SAR image to distinguish different features (e.g., vegetation, water, inundation) detected by the sensor
-Identify application areas where different SAR sensors are most applicable
-Compare and contrast the capabilities and characteristics of historic, current, and upcoming SAR data
