See the Earth—day, night, and through clouds

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is an active imaging technology that transmits microwave pulses and measures the energy reflected back from the surface. Unlike optical sensors, SAR works at night and through cloud, haze, smoke, and light rain, delivering reliable imagery and precise measurements when and where you need them.

Why SAR with Onyx Space

• All-weather reliability: Consistent collections in tropical, monsoon, and winter conditions.
• High detail & precision: From 0.5m–20 m (C-band).
• Measurements, not just pictures: Quantitative backscatter, coherence, and millimeter-scale deformation (InSAR).
• Fast delivery: Archive pulls within hours; new tasking in 24–72 hours (sensor-dependent).
