5. The SIR-C/X-SAR radar system has advantages over visible and near-infrared imagery in that radar is sensitive to surface roughness and orientation and has limited capabilities for imaging beneath sand. Hence the SIR-C/X-SAR imagery is more sensitive to geologic structures and is especially useful in hyperarid and poorly known regions such as the Sahara.
