Abstract
This paper describes the capabilities of the NRSC's TSAR processing system, that provides a flexible approach to precise rectification, calibration and geo-referencing of satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) acquistions. An overview is given of how the product of TSAR enables the exploitation of ESA's ERS SAR images for land-use applications in mountainous and hilly terrain. In particular land-cover monitoring and geological analysis are considered.
