Abstract
An airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been used as an interferometer to obtain direct, calibrated measurements of the ocean wind wave directional spectrum. Flights over the same area from three different directions produced reasonably consistent results. The SAR-derived wave data agree well with simultaneous observations by a conventional wave measuring system and with a novel in situ acoustic Doppler system.
