An all-seeing eye for defence:
Synthetic Aperture Radar

To achieve a unique level of situational awareness or obtain a tactical edge in border security, defence intelligence agencies often turn to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) for an all-seeing imagery source. SAR is an active system with very high clarity of ground features, and it can generate these high-resolution images anytime, even in inclement weather or darkness. It can see when more traditional EO imaging systems cannot.

To use these SAR images efficiently, a robust, streamlined remote sensing software such as ERDAS IMAGINE is required. With production-orientated tools, ERDAS IMAGINE makes SAR analysis fast and accurate without requiring users to possess in-depth radar knowledge.

In this webinar, you'll learn about use cases for SAR and relevant SAR capabilities within ERDAS IMAGINE. You'll also see how you can integrate this functionality into your existing workflows and create new workflows with Spatial Modeler, allowing you to deploy radar capabilities more widely.

Speaker: Derrold W. Holcomb, Advanced Sensor Software Manager, Hexagon

Derrold has concentrated on advanced SAR applications since the early NASA Space Shuttle experiments in the mid-1980s. When the first commercial radar satellite was launched, he joined ERDAS, now part of Hexagon, to lead their radar software development. He has continued to do so, and for the past 30 years he has focused on simplifying radar processing for various applications, especially in the defence arena.
