MetaSAR-L is MetaSensing’s compact airborne L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) designed for advanced mapping, environmental monitoring and Earth observation applications. Supporting high-resolution imaging in all weather conditions, the system enables vegetation and biomass analysis, soil moisture estimation, Digital Terrain Model generation, precision agriculture and environmental change detection. Its modular architecture allows flexible integration across multiple aircraft platforms, while MetaSAR-PRO processes synchronized SAR data into high-quality georeferenced products for advanced analysis and GIS applications.
