Zusammenfassung:RADARSAT-1, the first Canadian SAR remote sensing satellite has successfully completed its design lifetime of five and a quarter years. It is currently in extended mission operation meeting customer demands. The Image Quality Control program is kept fully operational, and measured results indicate image quality performance is maintained better than system specification. This paper briefly describes image quality results and recalibration work
