Information about the Product

Adquirida: 22/04/2007 ALOS SAR image which clearly delineates the three visible surfaces: land, the ice pack, and open water. Just above the centre of the image are two shiny spots surrounded by ice, which are probably two boats. This ALOS image was acquired just before 11:30 p.m. local time on April 22, and each pixel of the image represents a 12.5-metre square on the earth's surface.
