Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a powerful radar system that uses the motion of the radar platform (typically a satellite or aircraft) to simulate a much larger antenna, enhancing image resolution. By capturing detailed images of the Earth’s surface, SAR is commonly used for environmental monitoring, topographic mapping, and oceanography. Its ability to produce high-resolution images in all weather conditions makes it an invaluable tool for military surveillance, disaster response, and remote sensing, providing detailed views of the ground even through clouds or darkness.
