Satellites Spotting Aircraft

This technical article details how Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites from companies like Umbra Space can capture high-resolution imagery day or night, penetrating clouds and camouflage. It discusses the application of SAR imagery for detecting aircraft, particularly those not broadcasting ADS-B signals, and introduces the open-source SARDet-100K dataset and MSFA framework for large-scale SAR object detection, outlining a plan to use these tools on Umbra's data.
