  • Abstract
    TECSAR is a space based Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite. The satellite was launched on 21st January 2008, and the radar payload of the satellite was operated successfully after launch. The satellite performs excellently since its first activation. After an In Orbit Test (IOT) period, the system was delivered to the customers and is fully operational since then and provides a large number of high quality SAR images. A second generation TECSAR satellite is under development.
