Generation of high resolution topographic maps of the Galapagos Islands using TOPSAR data

Data collected over the Galapagos Islands using the JPL/NASA TOPSAR airborne interferometric radar covered an area in excess of 5000 km/sup 2/. This paper presents the algorithms used to mosaic the data into a high resolution (10/spl times/10 m ground spacing) topographic map of the islands. Also described are the correlation and height error maps which are generated as ancillary products to the topographic map.<>
