Currents in rivers, coastal areas, and the open ocean from TerraSAR-X along-track InSAR

Since the first presentation of a TerraSAR-X along-track InSAR (ATI) derived current field in November 2008, considerable progress has been made with the implementation and testing of various ATI modes of the instrument, improvements of data processing techniques, and test dataset acquisitions over a variety of test sites. Furthermore, receiving and processing capabilities for TerraSAR-X data have been established at the University of Miami's Center for Southeastern Tropical Advanced Remote Sensing (CSTARS), which will permit a complete processing and analysis of TerraSAR-X ATI-derived current fields at CSTARS in the future. We give an overview of these developments and show a few results of recent experiments
