The -1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument is particularly suited for the assessment of land use/ land cover, soil moisture, water content and frost/thaw state. A variety of applications for this sensor’s data can be envisioned, e.g. ship routing in arctic conditions, agriculture, vegetation and oil spills monitoring.
