dc.description.abstractThis thesis sets out the results of work done in preparation for a South African Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) measuring campaign envisaged for 1994/5. At present both airborne and spaceborne SARs have found a niche in remote sensing with applications in subsurface mapping, surface moisture mapping, vegetation mapping, rock type discrimination and Digital Elevation Modelling. Since these applications have considerable scientific and economic benefits, the Radar Remote Sensing Group at the University of Cape Town committed themselves to an airborne SAR campaign. The prime objective of the campaign is to provide the South African users with airborne SAR data and enable the Radar Remote Sensing Group to evaluate the usefulness of SAR as a remote sensing tool in South Africa.en_ZA
