Abstract :
The potential of the along-track interferometric SAR (along-track InSAR, ATI) modes of TerraSAR-X for high-resolution imaging of surface current fields has been discussed in several publications. In this paper we show first results based on actual TerraSAR-X ATI data, explain our data processing procedure, and give an update on the status of the instrument and on upcoming developments.
