Making Mosaics Of SAR Imagery

Spaceborne synthetic-aperture-radar (SAR) images useful for mapping of planets and investigations in Earth sciences. Produces multiframe mosaic by combining images along ground track, in adjacent cross-track swaths, or in ascending and descending passes. Images registered with geocoded maps such as ones produced by MAPJTC (NPO-17718), required as input. Minimal intervention by operator required. MOSK implemented on DEC VAX 11/785 computer running VMS 4.5. Most subroutines in FORTRAN, but three in MAXL and one in APAL.

Extracting Geocoded Images From SAR Data

SAR imagery automatically put onto map in desired projection. MAPJTC designed to rectify and transform standard image output of digital synthetic-aperture-radar (SAR) correlator into image registered with geocoded map, without manual tiepointing or other interaction with operator. Reduces procedure to two one-dimensional passes, thereby saving computer time. Program written in FORTRAN (84 percent), APAL (2 percent), and MAXL (14 percent).
