Results from the DALOEX 2015 campaign with F-SAR in Greenland

Inhalt:
In relation to a working group on future capabilities for applications in the Arctic region, the Danish Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organization (DALO) wanted to explore the possibilities that advanced synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems provide for surveillance, change detection, moving target identification and high resolution imaging. In this regard, DALO wanted to test a system with full polarimetric and interferometric capability and as many frequencies as possible. The F-SAR system of the German Aerospace Center (DLR), which makes it possible to explore five frequency bands in the range from 400 MHz to 10 GHz, was chosen for the experimentations. Examples of results and some preliminary conclusions are presented in this paper.
