Processing levels

Path image

The image is aligned parallel to the satellite's orbit path and has been geo-referenced by adding position information to the image data. This type of product must be oriented before integration into existing GIS datasets.

Map oriented image

The image is aligned parallel to true north and corrected using either Equidistant Rectangular, Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) or Australian Map Grid (AMG) map projections, as selected by the user. This type of image is the most appropriate for integration into existing GIS datasets.

Other digital products

The following processing options are available for users of SAR image data with high-end SAR processing capabilities:

Path Image Plus

A small pixel spacing is produced to retain the full RADARSAT beam mode resolution. This product enhances the ability to measure point targets. However, it will create a digital file which is considerably larger than a Path Image product. This product is the same price as the Path Image product for the equivalent beam mode and is not available in either of the ScanSAR beam modes.

Single Look Complex

Data is stored in slant range, has been corrected for satellite reception errors, includes positional information and is calibrated. In addition, this data retains the optimum resolution available for each beam mode and the phase and amplitude information of the original SAR data. This product is the same price as the Path Image product for the equivalent beam mode, but is not available in either of the ScanSAR beam modes.

Raw Data

This data cannot be viewed as an image. It is an unprocessed matrix of time delays which have been repackaged to fit into standard CEOS format. This product is the same price as the Path Image product for the equivalent beam mode.

Ordering

Volume discounts

Discounts for purchasing multiple scenes within the single order are available. Please contact Earth Observation Client Services for a quote.

Imported RADARSAT data

Worldwide RADARSAT Data is available through Geoscience Australia. This includes an Australian mosaic available in digital form or as a poster.

Satellite programming

Please refer to the Future acquisitions policy for details about satellite programming services.

Monitoring service

Monitoring services are available for users with temporal applications where repetitive acquisitions over a pre-specified area are required for a fixed period of time. Availability and quotations for price may be obtained on request.

Media

Data is available on DVD or by FTP.

Delivery

Products are dispatched by air freight. The price of data includes freight charges within Australia as outlined in the freight policy. To facilitate delivery of products, please provide both a postal and a street address. We also provide online delivery for all products currently available on a single DVD at $50 less than the normal recommended retail price for the product. For more details see Online Delivery page.

Trading conditions

Special copyright conditions apply to the sale of satellite data. In order to purchase satellite data products, users must agree to licence conditions covering its use. See the Licensing Conditions.

Priority processing

Priority processing of orders for archived data is normally available with a turnaround time of 36 hours. The charge for this service is $220 plus the normal product price. Availability of this service should be discussed with Geoscience Australia at time of order.

Please contact Earth Observation Client Services or your local RADARSAT distributors for further information.
