Berlin Central Station from space
Berlin Central Station from space
From 11 to 15 May 2015, approximately 750 international experts will meet at the Berlin ISRSE conference upon invitation of DLR to discuss Earth observation and climate change. One topic will be the German radar satellites TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X. The two remote sensing satellites have recorded Berlin Central Station from space with millimetric precision. The results are visible in this image. In the course of a year, the steel complex deformed vertically by up to 1.8 centimetres and horizontally by between 1.5 and 3.5 centimetres. Other items of ‘critical infrastructure’, which the radar satellites measure from space, include bridges and dams.
