Monitoring Crops Using Compact Polarimetry and the RADARSAT Constellation Mission
The RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) can acquire imagery in Compact Polarimetric (CP) mode. With this new mode, and the increased revisit with three satellites, RCM can contribute to operational crop monitoring at national scales. The four Stokes (S0,

Charting Dynamic Areas in the Mackenzie River with RADARSAT-2, Simulated RADARSAT Constellation Mission and Optical Remote Sensing Data [PDF]
Mariners navigating within Canadian waters rely on Canadian Hydrographic Service (CHS) navigational charts to safely reach their destinations. To fulfil this need, CHS charts must accurately reflect the current state of Canadian coastal regions.

Mid-season Crop Classification Using Dual-, Compact-, and Full-Polarization in Preparation for the Radarsat Constellation Mission (RCM) [PDF]
Despite recent research on the potential of dual- (DP) and full-polarimetry (FP) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data for crop mapping, the capability of compact polarimetry (CP) SAR data has not yet been thoroughly investigated.

Oil spill detection using simulated RADARSAT constellation mission compact polarimetric SAR data [PDF]
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) remote sensing has become a valuable tool for maritime pollution monitoring with three major requirements: 1) low noise floor, 2) large area coverage, and 3) polarization diversity to maximize detection and discrimination ...
