NASA DC-8 EARTH AIRSAR RESAMPLED RADAR IMAGES V1.0
Listed in NASA Data Portal
AIRSAR is the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's airborne polarimetric SAR that operates at C (5.66 cm), L (23.98 cm), and P (68.13 cm) wavelengths in a polarimetric mode (Zebker et al., 1987).
Description
AIRSAR acquires data that can be processed to backscatter image formats with range and azimuth resolutions of approximately 20 meters. The pixel values are expressed in radar backscatter cross section as 32-bit numbers.
The cross section is the area of a half sphere that would scatter the amount of power received by the antenna.
