Abstract
TanDEM-X (TerraSAR-X add-on for Digital Elevation Measurement) is an innovative radar interferometry mission to generate a global, consistent and highly accurate Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and to provide a configurable SAR interferometry platform for demonstrating new SAR techniques and applications. This paper summarizes the mission concept starting from the user requirements, the HELIX orbit and TanDEM-X operational modes to the expected height performance. Examples of new SAR techniques are presented.
