| Description | A synthetic aperture radar (SAR) compilation system was developed for extraction of topographic information of Venus from stereoradar imagery to be obtained from the Magellan mission. The system was developed for an AS-11AM analytical stereoplotter. Extensive tests were made on this compilation software by using stereo images from various radar systems, both spaceborne and airborne. Maps were compiled and the precision of planimetry and contour measurement was evaluated. Digital data of some models were also collected for processing orthophoto or perspective views by using the original radar images. |
