Our mission:

The Microwaves and Radar Institute develops new microwave processes and sensor-specific applications for remote sensing, traffic monitoring and reconnaissance. Our work focuses on high-resolution Synthetic Aperture Radar technologies. At present, our scientists are using data from the twin satellites TanDEM-X and TerraSAR-X to generate the world's first homogeneous digital elevation model of Earth, and they are responsible for scientific use of the remote sensing data.

You can find out about our fascinating projects on our website. If you have any technical questions, please get in touch with the relevant contact person.
