What on Earth is Synthetic Aperture Radar

High-Level Project Summary

draw people’s attention to Earth’s daily problems and catastrophes by recalling a few situations in which SAR detected an abnormality and assured humans’ safety and security.Our job now is to explain it’s concept using simplified language supported by the necessary visuals and animations, will demonstrate how it can monitor the land in every possible way to ensure a better future. And by that we look forward to keep people in touch with the upcoming missions mainly NISAR launching in 2022, using the same previous criteria for the same purpose. It is essential that we continue to understand what's changing, for only then will the data provided by SAR reach its full potential.

Detailed Project Description

As future physicist, our ultimate purpose is to make scientific knowledge accessible and easy to be understood by just anyone. 

Our solution will target people's unawareness of SAR's glorified importance in our life on Earth, and they’ll be given a great opportunity to make use of this fascinating technology. 

The data we had access to will serve us to draw people’s attention to Earth’s daily problems and catastrophes by recalling a few situations in which SAR detected an abnormality or change and assured humans’ safety and security.

Thereafter comes the question of who is this mysterious Savior and our job to explain it’s concept using simplified language and phrases with metaphoric examples that are common among the public mind. 

Supported by the necessary visuals and animations will demonstrate how it can monitor the land in every possible way to ensure a better future.

And by that we look forward to keep people in touch with the upcoming missions mainly NISAR launching in 2022, using the same previous criteria for the same purpose

It is essential that we continue to understand what's changing, for only then will the data provided by SAR reach its full potential and assure the safety and security of humans.

Space Agency Data

We based our research on the technology of SAR and the measuring techniques and applications and articles released about the problems SAR solved. It gave us an idea to use these problems and solution to attract people to then amaze them with the Hero behind who helps and saves their lives behind the scenes.

Hackathon Journey

It was a lot of work, days of no sleep but it was a great experience to learn new things and be part of something new and try to create or have a solution to an actual problem. As physicists we have a goal to make knowledge accessible to anyone and simplify it and share the importance of science, technology and knowledge. We worked together and divided roles in the team. We based our infos on NASA's resources and spent days researching and filming and editing. I'd like to thank our local lead and of course my team.
