The Benefits of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
Capella’s constellation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellites provides 24-hour all-weather Earth observation. What makes SAR unique is its ability to penetrate atmospheric conditions, providing near real-time visibility in cloud covered areas, both day and night.
Capella Space’s commercial SAR technology offers many advantages that traditional earth observation sensors cannot provide.
