1 Dalton Flooding information from TerraSAR-X

2 Detecting River Changes SAR imagery can be used to assess changes in a river’s position even in snow or icy conditions. X-Band SAR can penetrate dry snow Required air temps <20ºF River ice typically provides a strong return due high surface roughness The vertical displacement of a river bank makes it easier to delineate the land/water boundary GeoNorth, LLC confidential

3 TerraSAR-X Overview res. 18 m 100 x 150 km² Detailed maritime monitoring & detection ScanSAR res. 3 m 30 x 50 km² Detection & classification of vessels, infrastructure, etc. StripMap SpotLight res. 1 m 10 x 5 km² Recognition of objects (airplanes, hangars, vessels,..) Staring Spotlight Staring SL res. 0.25 m 4 x 3.7 km² or 2.5 x 7.5 km², Identification of objects Wide SC res. 40 m 200 – 270 x 200 km² Large area maritime monitoring of traffic, oil spills, sea ice,.. Wide ScanSAR Multiple Collection Modes
