Participants in this course will develop the following skills:

• Intuitive understanding of SAR image and phase information
• Understanding the properties of different SAR sensor types
• Ability to pick the optimal sensor for your application
• Creation RGB color visualizations from images acquired at different times or in different polarizations
• Use of SAR images to map flooding, deforestation, and landslides
• Use of interferometric SAR techniques to measure cm-scale surface deformation related to earthquakes and volcanic activity
