Abstract
RADARSAT-1 Background Mission is the first attempt ever to acquire uniform global synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data in various seasons and imaging modes. A multi-mode global coverage is made possible by making use of the flexible imaging parameters of the satellite and its real-time as well as on-board recording capabilities. Synoptic, continental scale coverages along with local time-sensitive and application-specific data collections are planned. All data acquired under Background Mission are archived and, like the archives of any other RADARSAT-1 data, are accessible to the user community for its scientific and operational needs. RADARSAT-1 Background Mission started with the commencement of normal satellite operations in April 1996. This article reports on the progress made so far in the first two coverages of the world, one with the ScanSAR Wide and the other with the Standard 7 imaging beams of RADARSAT-1 SAR.
RADARSAT-1背景任务是有史以来首次尝试在不同季节和成像模式下获取全球统一合成孔径雷达(SAR)数据。利用卫星灵活的成像参数及其实时和机载记录能力，可以实现多模式全球覆盖。天气、大陆尺度覆盖以及当地时间敏感和特定应用的数据收集计划。在背景任务下取得的所有数据都已存档，并且象任何其他RADARSAT-1数据的存档一样，可供用户社区查阅，以满足其科学和业务需要。RADARSAT-1背景任务于1996年4月开始正常卫星业务。本文介绍了RADARSAT-1合成孔径雷达(SAR)前两个覆盖的进展情况，一个是scan - ar Wide覆盖，另一个是Standard 7成像波束覆盖。
期刊介绍：
Remote Sensing Information is a bimonthly academic journal supervised by the Ministry of Natural Resources of the People's Republic of China and sponsored by China Academy of Surveying and Mapping Science. Since its inception in 1986, it has been one of the authoritative journals in the field of remote sensing in China.In 2014, it was recognised as one of the first batch of national academic journals, and was awarded the honours of Core Journals of China Science Citation Database, Chinese Core Journals, and Core Journals of Science and Technology of China. The journal won the Excellence Award (First Prize) of the National Excellent Surveying, Mapping and Geographic Information Journal Award in 2011 and 2017 respectively.
Remote Sensing Information is dedicated to reporting the cutting-edge theoretical and applied results of remote sensing science and technology, promoting academic exchanges at home and abroad, and promoting the application of remote sensing science and technology and industrial development. The journal adheres to the principles of openness, fairness and professionalism, abides by the anonymous review system of peer experts, and has good social credibility. The main columns include Review, Theoretical Research, Innovative Applications, Special Reports, International News, Famous Experts' Forum, Geographic National Condition Monitoring, etc., covering various fields such as surveying and mapping, forestry, agriculture, geology, meteorology, ocean, environment, national defence and so on.
Remote Sensing Information aims to provide a high-level academic exchange platform for experts and scholars in the field of remote sensing at home and abroad, to enhance academic influence, and to play a role in promoting and supporting the protection of natural resources, green technology innovation, and the construction of ecological civilisation.
