Moreira’s technology also helps to track the effects of climate change. Using radar to map the Earth’s surface Before Moreira and his team developed their InSAR system in 2010, synthetic-aperture radar systems were the state of the art, he says. The InSAR system was used in the DLR’s 2010 TanDEM-X mission.
