What is the formula for converting slant range image to ground range image?
e= arc sin(H/S) whereH is the terrain clearance between the aircraft and target and S is the slant range to the target. Measure angle a' on the film (a' is the angle between edge offilm and a line through the two points in question).
What is slant range and ground range geometry in radar?
Slant range: the distance measured along a line between the antenna and the target. It is the natural radar range observation coordinate. Ground range: the distance from the ground track to an object. It is the slant range projected onto the geoid of the Earth.
