Detection of Actionable Oil using RADARSAT-2 and Simulated RADARSAT Constellation Mission Data [PDF]
Abstract 688970 For oil spill response, one of the key parameters is detection of actionable oil. Actionable oil (AO), which tends to be thick, emulsified oil, refers to oil that can be cleaned-up versus non-actionable oil (sheen) which cannot be readily cleaned-up. Previous studies by MDA of a controlled oil spills in the North Sea have

SAR interferometry with the RADARSAT Constellation Mission
The RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) is Canada's latest system of C-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Earth observation satellites. The system of three satellites, spaced equally in a common orbit, allows for a rapid four-day repeat interval. The RCM has been designed with a selection of stripmap, spotlight, and ScanSAR beam modes which offer ...

The RADARSAT Constellation Mission in Support of Environmental Applications [PDF]
The RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM) is a future Canadian spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) mission, with the purpose of supporting the operational use of SAR imagery for different Earth observation applications. The mission, through its three identical satellites, will provide average daily complete coverage of Canada’s land and oceans. In
