| Abstract | (Summary)
This report examines the current and upcoming Canadian satellite SAR mission data holdings and considers how best to make these data available for analysis in the new era of 'Big
Data'. The report considers relevant international endeavours, the unique contribution that Canada may be able to make, and the practical steps necessary to bring a Canadian vision to fruition. Three Analysis Ready Data (ARD) options are presented
and the interdependent issues of data cube computing environment choice are addressed. |
