MetaSAR - P
An advanced multichannel airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
MetaSAR - P
The MetaSAR-P, an advanced multichannel airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) operating at UHF frequency, is designed for a range of applications including Interferometric (InSAR), Polarimetric (PolSAR), and Tomographic (TomoSAR).
This versatile tool is ideal for creating Digital Terrain Models and monitoring vegetation, pipelines, and below-canopy objects. It combines P-band radar excellence with customizable sizes and resolutions for all-weather monitoring.
Equipped with the MetaSAR-PRO software for data processing, it delivers high-quality, georeferenced PolInSAR images suitable for feature extraction and land classification.

Your ultimate solution for advanced SAR Imaging
MetaSAR-P capabilities
The MetaSAR-P is a sophisticated multichannel airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) operating at VHF/UHF frequencies, ideal for producing calibrated SAR images. This radar is particularly useful for creating Digital Terrain Models (DTM) and monitoring environments, capable of penetrating foliage and sand, mapping vegetation and biomass, and detecting hidden structures or targets.
System design and operational flexibility
MetaSensing's MetaSAR-P integrates advanced P-band radar technology into a compact, all-weather system adaptable to different aircraft. This sensor supports customizable resolutions and collects data processed by MetaSAR-PRO software, producing detailed, georeferenced images for feature extraction and land classification.
Terrain mapping and forest applications
MetaSAR-P's long wavelengths penetrate forest canopies to accurately measure terrain surface elevation, even in dense forests. Utilizing repeat-pass InSAR mode, it produces precise Digital Terrain Models (DTMs), proving essential for forestry applications such as forest height analysis and biomass estimation.
