NISAR operates on two radar frequencies: L-band and S-band. The L-band is suited for monitoring taller vegetation like trees, while the S-band provides precise readings of shorter plants, such as bushes. This dual-frequency system allows the satellite to track changes in forests, glaciers, sea ice, and critical infrastructure, including dams and bridges. It can also identify areas prone to seismic activity, offering insights into fault lines and volcanic regions Show more
