Summary
Abstract: The Canada Centre for Remote Sensing (CCRS), and the Canadian Space Agency
(CSA) have collaborated with contributions from RADARSAT International (RSI),
to create an ortho-rectified RADARSAT-1 mosaic of Canada.

Using CSA's RADARSAT data archive, ScanSAR Narrow B descending mode
data were selected. The majority of the data, south of 60 degrees was acquired
