Validation of current and bathymetry measurements in the German Bight by airborne along-track interferometric SAR

摘要: We present final results of the German research project EURoPAK, whose main objective was development a remote sensing technique for surface current fields and underwater bathymetry on basis conventional interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAR InSAR). In May 2001, second two field experiments with an airborne along-track InSAR carried out over test site in North Sea, where scientists GKSS Research Center performed simultaneous in-situ measurements variety instruments within framework another project. describe data processing procedures, show examples measured bathymetric maps, discuss quality our potential INSAR operational services such as routine monitoring changes.
