5 Questions
What is the purpose of a radar image configuration?
To visually represent the amount of microwave energy backscattered from the earth's surface
How does the viewing geometry of a spaceborne SAR compare to an airborne SAR with a similar swath width?
It varies only a few degrees
What is the result of low backscatter values in radar images?
They appear as dark tones
What is the significance of the radar operation being coherent?
It enables the sampling of both the return magnitude and phase
What is the format of the raw data file in radar image configuration?
A two-dimensional array of complex values
