The German Aerospace Center (DLR)
WEBDLR is the German aerospace research and technology centre. In its core areas, DLR develops technologies for aeronautics and space, energy and transport, as well as security and defence research. A broad spectrum of results and innovations bring benefits for industry and business, authorities and administration as well as for public stakeholders.
German Space Agency - DLR
WEBCutting-edge German tech for better weather forecasts worldwide. Today, Germany will deliver a state-of-the-art measuring instrument – the METimage multispectral radiometer – to the European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) and the European Space Agency (ESA). August 23, 2024.
Students & doctoral candidates - DLR
WEBDoctoral positions are usually limited to three years, with the option of extension. During the doctoral programme, you will be employed by DLR – usually with a half-time position. However, exceptions are possible. Our funding programme for doctoral candidates – the DLR_Graduate_Program – is designed for three years.
TerraSAR-X - DLR
WEBTerraSAR-X operates independently of weather conditions, cloud cover and daylight and is able to provide radar data with a resolution of up to one meter. TerraSAR-X is a German Earth-observation satellite. Its primary payload is an X-band radar sensor with a range of different modes of operation, allowing it to acquire images with different ...
Data access and products - DLR
WEBThe terms for TerraSAR-X data utilisation depend on the envisaged application. The base level products comprise simple image products, where scanning mode, polarization and geometric projection can be specified by the customer according to their needs. Orders can be placed for items from the current catalogue as well as for ...
