Los Angeles

Los Angeles
The American metropolis of Los Angeles spreads out over a vast area. Given that vertical structures reflect the radar signals from the DLR satellites TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X better than flat structures, this map is able to show the particularly dense build-up found in Los Angeles and its typical block-shaped pattern. The areas shaded white that contain no vertical structures indicate highways or airports.
