No, SAR Can’t See Through Buildings
When we released our unprecedented 50 cm x 50 cm resolution imagery this week, the market was thrilled to see crisp images of Singapore, Taiwan, Roswell International Air Center and other global landmarks with SAR technology. Unfortunately, some coverage included inaccurate headlines claiming that Capella and other SAR providers can see through buildings, causing privacy concerns. Some even went as far as saying that SAR is capable of monitoring people in their living room.
To be clear and upfront – these claims are incorrect and have no roots in reality and, in fact, the laws of physics prevent our sensor from “seeing” through buildings and walls.

SAR has helped academics, scientists, researchers, and government analysts for decades when cloud coverage, nighttime and extreme weather events obstruct visibility.
