PAZ Full Archive and New Tasking Jan-2018

| The PAZ (Spanish for “peace”) satellite, launched on 22 February 2018, is owned
and operated by Hisdesat, and is based on the use of a high-resolution X-band
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The satellite operates in the same orbit as its
twin satellites TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X, and the three satellites work together
as a constellation. The objective of the PAZ mission is to provide imagery for
both civilian and security and defence requirements. ESA offers worldwide access to PAZ data (both archive and new tasking) via the TPM scheme. Read more
