  • Abstract
    This paper provides an overview of the TerraSAR-X commissioning phase (CP). The overall CP planning and preparation is presented. The strategy for data-take (DT) command generation is discussed, and statistical reports summarize the acquired CP DTs. An overview summary on the main results in the different characterization and verification areas is provided together with synthetic aperture radar image examples.
