It’s not a replacement for visual range (or infrared for that matter) but an additional sensor. It’s usually used to create things like elevation maps. So all those altitude measurements that you see on Google Earth might be at least partially SAR.
- K0balt 6y ago"it can see through buildings" Perhaps you missed the point of the article? While it is true that some implementations of SAR can image through walls at short distances (tens of meters), SAR is a very broad term and those systems are very different from the imaging systems in the article.
- shash 6y agoOK, never comment from a mobile phone! Of course I meant it can't see through buildings!
