Digitalisation research
Digitalisation is key for DLR's major research areas: aeronautics, space, energy, transport and the cross-sectoral area of security. With the adoption of the 2030 Strategy, the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) has expanded its portfolio with the new cross-sectoral area of digitalisation.
TerraSAR-X
With the TerraSAR-X radar satellite, the land masses of the Earth are particularly closely inspected. This includes the mapping of our forests, the generation and current updating of land utilization maps, the recording of derelict land areas and the estimation of the maturitylevel of areas in agricultural use, as well as the study and monitoring of geologically active areas such as volcanic and earthquake regions.
