Is there any news on the timeframe for a global availability of SRTM-1 (1 Arc-Second) data?

Physics: Why do we describe light by referring to its wavelength, but microwaves and radar pulses by referring to their frequency?

In physics, the description of the properties of light generally refers to its wavelength (nm), while in the range of microwaves and radio waves we refer to the frequency of a signal (e.g. kHz or...

How is the power spectrum of the backscattering produced by the atmosphere on radar transmission?

If a radar send an electromagnetic wave to track some object I would expect that the returned wave (from the object) is accompanied by backscattering from atmosphere molecules. My question is, how...
