摘要:With TerraSAR-X and RADARSAT-2, two dual-channel SAR satellites will be launched in the next months. Both sensors allow for detecting moving objects, and, by this, enable traffic monitoring from space. This paper revises the theoretical background of traffic monitoring with space-based SARs and presents concepts for the TerraSAR-X traffic monitoring system. Compared to previous work an extensive analytical and empirical accuracy analysis is included for both vehicle detection and velocity estimation. The accuracy analysis includes a theoretical accuracy evaluation and a validation with real data
