Who we are
sarmap is a Swiss company funded in 1998. Its mission is to build and provide innovative remote
sensing based solutions for the provision of digital information.
Core activities:
• SARscape and OPTICALscape – a set of modules, embedded in ENVI and worldwide distributed by
HARRIS, for the processing of spaceborne and airborne SAR and optical data.
• Digital Elevation Model based on spaceborne and airborne SAR systems, and, more recently, on the
synergetic use with stereo-optical data and UAV.
• Land displacements for the measurement and modelling of Earth movements up to mm level.
• Agricultural services targeted to food security and insurance applications. A dedicated remote
sensing processing chain MAPscape-RICE has been developed.
• Forest services targeted to certification and insurance applications. A dedicated remote sensing
processing chain MAPscape-TransparentForests has been developed.
Clients are governments, international bodies, NGOs, research centers, remote sensing and multi-
national technology companies, and re-/insurance sector.
• Basic
• Focusing
• ScanSAR Interferometry
• Cluster version
• Algorithms continuously improved through:
– Internal developments
– ESA-financed and other research projects
– Collaborations with many universities and expert groups

Ship detection
• AIS data are not exploited for detection, but can be imported
within SARscape and overlaid for comparison
Sentinel-1 data

More ground covers are required and the new sensors (e.g.
Sentinel) provides very big data.
