We request funds to support a community workshop to guide US efforts in establishing a US Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) mission. InSAR is a new type of space-based radar observation that allows ground displacements from earthquakes and other sources to be measured over many millions of pixels (each representing a resolution of about 10-30 meters) to a displacement accuracy of several millimeters. InSAR images also have significant value in monitoring volcanic eruptions; in weather forecasting, inasmuch as the radar reflections are sensitive to soil moisture variations; in ice and glacier studies; and in a variety of surface change and environmental applications, including estimates of wind velocity and direction, and detection of oil slicks. The proposed workshop will take place October 20-22, 2004 in Oxnard, California. We anticipate receiving funds from NASA for workshop support. Funds will also be requested from the USGS. The Southern California Earthquake Center will provide administrative support for the workshop.

我们请求资金支持社区研讨会，以指导美国建立美国干涉合成孔径雷达（InSAR）任务的努力。 InSAR 是一种新型天基雷达观测，可以通过数百万像素（每个像素代表约 10-30 米的分辨率）测量地震和其他来源引起的地面位移，位移精度达到几毫米。 InSAR图像在监测火山喷发方面也具有重要价值；在天气预报中，因为雷达反射对土壤湿度变化很敏感；冰和冰川研究；以及各种表面变化和环境应用，包括风速和风向的估计以及浮油的检测。拟议的研讨会将于 2004 年 10 月 20 日至 22 日在加利福尼亚州奥克斯纳德举行。 我们预计会收到 NASA 的研讨会支持资金。 还将向美国地质调查局申请资金。 南加州地震中心将为研讨会提供行政支持。
