Thanks for the writeup! Agree on SAR being vastly different to interpret, and I can imagine the priciness. I also understand that the capacity/demand is another complicating factor now over Ukraine. As you explained SAR phenomenology is not straight forward at all (pun intended). If I could suggest an option to explore a SAR-based damage proxy indicator, it would be interferometric coherence. This suggests however that you get your hands on InSAR data, both timely (to avoid decorrelation, which can happen over the span of a few days) and at good resolution to get relevant information at building-level. As you can imagine this is not easy nor cheap to get. I am unaware if Capella is InSAR-capable; COSMO-SkyMed and TerraSAR/TanDEM/PAZ are the usual suspects when it comes to SAR constellations with InSAR capability and good frozen orbits. ICEYE I believe is trying to get there, but things are evolving rapidly. Sentinel-1 is a wonderful mission with solid InSAR capability, but I am not sure C-band delivers the resolution you need. Maybe NISAR is worth keeping an eye on in the future? Fascinating work that matters, good luck with it!
