Synthetic Aperture Radar for Africa (SAR-Africa) is an initiative which aims to develop African capacity for the processing of satellite SAR products to pursue oceanographic research and promote operational applications. The validation of SAR products against in situ observations is essential for the successful implementation of a SAR research and operational capacity, so efforts will be made to put in place a dedicated SAR field validation campaign.
