Airbus U.S. WorldSAR Constellation
The WorldSAR constellation, orbiting 514 km above Earth, consists of the TerraSAR-X family of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites (TerraSAR-X, TanDEM-X and PAZ). These satellites reliably capture high-resolution and wide-area radar images regardless of weather and light conditions. They operate within a dusk/dawn orbit, which is outside of standard Electro Optical orbital patterns, and provide imagery to a wide variety of government, scientific and commercial users. The constellation's unique geometric accuracy is unmatched by any other commercial spaceborne sensor, and image acquisition modes include Staring SpotLight, High Resolution SpotLight, SpotLight, StripMap, ScanSAR and Wide ScanSAR.

WorldDEM Digital Elevation Models
Airbus U.S. offers a Digital Surface Model, derived from the WorldDEM dataset. WorldDEM is the first global elevation dataset with standardized 12-m coverage from pole to pole of the Earth. Created from stereo radar pairs collected by the twin satellites TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X, this high-quality elevation layer is free from common radar-induced anomalies. The WorldDEM is an ideal solution for mapping projects that require accurate elevation models, including orthorectification, floodplain determination, mineral exploration, and hydrocarbon development.
