Description: Copernicus Sentinel-1 (left), the first in the family of Copernicus satellites, is used to care for many aspects of the environment, from detecting and tracking oil spills and mapping sea ice to monitoring movement in land surfaces and mapping changes in the way land is used. Thanks to the multi-spectral instrument, Copernicus ...

Sentinel-1 is a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) mission, providing continuous all-weather, day-and-night imagery at C-band (centre frequency: 5.405 GHz), operating in four exclusive imaging modes with different spatial resolutions and coverages.

Observatory, Sentinel-1, a polar orbiting satellite system that will ensure the continuation and improvement of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) operational services and applications.

The ability to geolocate Sentinel-1 (S-1) image products and transform them into a map projection is a criti-cal step required to enable overlays with other sources of information (e.g. DEM, GIS layers) or images from other SAR sensors acquired with a different track, beam, or incident angle. Sentinel-1 time series analyses

Nov 9, 2021 · The Sentinel-1 Global Backscatter Model (S1GBM) describes Earth’s surface for the period 2016-17 by the mean C-band radar cross section in VV- and VH-polarisation at a 10 m pixel sampling.

From issue 1.0 to 1.6, the Sentinel-1 Level 1 Detailed Algorithm Definition was maintained by a consortium led by MDA under the reference S1-RS-MDA-52-7445. The S-1 IPF and associated documentation is then maintained by the S-1 Mission Performance
