Abstract

TanDEM-X (TerraSAR-X Add-on for Digital Elevation Measurements) is a bistatic SAR interferometry mission which is currently implemented as a national Earth observation mission by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and EADS Astrium GmbH. This paper provides an overview of the mission with main focus on the primary mission goal, the generation of a global digital elevation model (DEM), and the data acquisition concept for the interferometric radar data.
