Abstract
Previously the production of focused, undistorted, synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) images in a routine way has been described. The means by which information about the scene can be extracted from the resultant images is discussed. The importance of prior knowledge about the form of the scene for interpreting the image data is shown. Different types of model are introduced and their implications for information extraction are examined.Keywords
