Editors Note:
We represent the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) community. This site was created in 2006. Recently, the commercial SAR industry has seen a very large boom. Regulators have relaxed rules, New Space entrepreneurs are developing disruptive technologies and many traditional SAR systems are past their design life.
This website is updated and moderated by SAR nerds just like you. We do not seek to generate a profit from this website and our goal is to further the SAR industry.
Note: English may not be the first language of some contributors please expect to see syntax and grammar errors.
