What is SAR?
Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) uses the electromagnetic energy of microwaves to interact with and form an image of the Earth’s surface.
The term synthetic aperture refers to the virtual increase in the antenna aperture by means of sweeps or “looks”, which allows obtaining images of higher spatial resolution.
