The S.A.P.H.I.R team, which stands for the French acronym of SAR Polarimetry, Holography, Interferometry and Radargrammetry, belongs to the Rennes Institute of Electronics and Telecommunications (IETR) of the University of Rennes 1. The major research activities of the group are in the field of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) technology, with emphasis to multidimensional systems. An special interest is deserved to Radar Polarimetry. These activities encompass one, or several, of the following points:

  • Quantitative Analysis: surface roughness, soil moisture, urban areas, snow and forest covers.
  • Qualitative Analysis.
  • Radar Imaging Systems Simulator.
  • Education Software:PolSARpro.
  • Polarimetric Theory.
