摘要
Monitoring of sea ice in Canada's Arctic was one of the prime motivations for the development of an all-weather, active remote sensing satellite by the Canadian government. The Canadian Ice Service (CIS) has been an active participant in the RADARSAT-1 program since its inception, and throughout the research, development, and operational phases. The CIS now critically relies on RADARSAT-1 to provide operational ice reconnaissance over a seasonal ice cover of approximately 2 million km(2).
