Abstract: |
Understanding radar remote sensing is more challenging than optical remote sensing, as the technology itself is more complex and the data recorded are more diverse. This chapter covers the basic principles of imaging radars, the geometric properties of acquisition, spatial resolution, the interaction of microwave radiation emitted by radar instruments with the Earth's surface, the characteristics and processing of radar images, a description of major radar systems, selected applications of radar imagery, and finally, an introduction to the theory of interferometry using radar data.
