This report from Argentina's National Space Agency highlights the characteristics of the SAOCOM satellite missions, including its SAR L-Band capabilities and interferometric capability. The main driver of the SAOCOM missions is agriculture and hydrology, specifically soil moisture, DEMs, and interferometry for decision support systems in agriculture. The report also explores high-level applications for optimizing crop management, fertilizers, and agrochemical applications. It also mentions the development of a web portal for the DSS in agriculture, providing access to various data and scenarios.
