TanDEM-X: DEM Acquisition in the third Year Era
TanDEM-X (TerraSAR-X add-on for Digital Elevation Measurement) is a space-borne X-band SAR mission designed to derive a digital elevation model (DEM) of the Earth’s land surface with an unprecedented relative vertical accuracy of 2m at a 12m posting. To achieve this goal, the two satellites fly in c...
