Abstract :
In April 1994 the Shuttle Radar Lab (SRL) with the SIR-C/X-SAR synthetic aperture radars acquired data for a period of ten days. The available data and image products from the X-SAR instrument are outlined. The functionality of the German Processing and Archiving Facility is briefly discussed and some examples of the image products are provided.
