Surveillance
Persistent Surveillance for Mission-Critical Awareness
Surveillance
In military and security operations, surveillance is the continuous, focused observation of areas, assets, and activities to support decision-making, force protection, and threat mitigation. Effective surveillance demands reliability, flexibility, and the ability to see through environmental and tactical obstructions—day or night.
Why SAR for Surveillance?
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) offers unique advantages over traditional surveillance tools. Unlike optical sensors, SAR delivers high-resolution imagery regardless of weather conditions, smoke, or darkness. IMSAR’s SAR systems are designed for persistent monitoring, enabling operators to detect, classify, and track changes over time with unmatched clarity.
Key Applications
IMSAR’s SAR surveillance solutions are mission-proven in scenarios such as:
Border patrol and perimeter security:
Detecting movement, breaches, or unauthorized crossings in remote or rugged terrain.
Critical infrastructure monitoring:
Observing railways, power lines, oil pipelines, and communications hubs for tampering, degradation, or threats.
Wide-area surveillance:
Continuously scanning large regions to build pattern-of-life intelligence or support time-sensitive operations.
Real SAR Outputs, Real Intelligence
Our systems generate a variety of sensor outputs that provide real-time intelligence:
High-resolution stripmaps
for broad area context
Spotlight imagery
for detailed inspection of key targets.
Coherent Change Detection (CCD)
to highlight subtle changes between imaging passes
Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI)
to detect and track movement on the ground.
