High resolution SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) imagery of the Switchyard constructed from RADARSAT imagery acquired between Feb 28 and Mar 17, 2003. The intrinsic resolution of the data is ~100m. Lower backscatter leads (darker) can be seen in a background field of mostly higher backscatter (brighter) multiyear ice. (RADARSAT imagery copyright CSA 2005).
