Copernicus Sentinel-1 maps Earth's Land Surface with C-Band …
2021年11月9日 · 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
