Two altimeter concepts based on spaceborne synthetic-aperture-radar (SAR) proposed to gather global, uniformly sampled, high-resolution, topographical data on land and ice. Wide swath and high pulse rate of SAR makes possible to acquire spatially contiguous data over large areas in reasonable amount of time, and time needed for altimetric processing of SAR data considerably less than that needed to generate topographical maps from stereoscopic photographs. Radar less vulnerable to cloud cover and other weather conditions than optical techniques.
