RADARSAT-2 is Canada's next-generation commercial SAR satellite. The new satellite was launched December 14, 2007 on a Soyuz vehicle from Russia's Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. RADARSAT-2 provides powerful new capabilities which include high resolution imaging (3m), flexibility in selection of polarization, left and right-looking imaging options, shortened programming, processing and delivery timelines, superior data storage and more precise measurements of spacecraft position and attitude.
MDA operates the satellite and ground segment and holds the worldwide distribution rights to RADARSAT-2 data.
