The
Earth remote radar sensing high resolution satellite with the synthetic antenna
aperture.
Creation of the satellite is planned by the National Space Program for
2008-2012.
The onboard set of radar equipment will allow to solve a number of practical
and scientific tasks.
Information from the satellite will find a wide utility in developing the large-scale
maps and plans, geoinformation systems, etc.
