SARtutkimusten
SARtutkimusten is a Finnish term that translates to "SAR research" or "SAR studies." SAR itself stands for Synthetic Aperture Radar, a type of remote sensing technology. Synthetic Aperture Radar systems are active sensors, meaning they emit their own microwave pulses and then record the signals that are reflected back from the Earth's surface. This allows them to create images of the terrain regardless of weather conditions or time of day, as radar waves can penetrate clouds and darkness.
SARtutkimusten therefore refers to the scientific investigation and application of data gathered by Synthetic Aperture Radar.
In the field of geology, SARtutkimusten contributes to mapping geological structures, monitoring ground deformation, and identifying
