Dear subscribers Map-L,


With reference to this recent article, I take pleasure informing you as
follows:
http://news.discovery.com/earth/earth-satellite-3d.html

TanDEM-X is scheduled to meet up in orbit with its larger "twin"
satellite TerraSAR-X and fly in a tight helix around it. As the two
image the same section of Earth from slightly different angles, they
will produce the first high-resolution 3-D pictures of the planet's
surface. The first such images are expected in January.


New maps generated this way will allow military jets to fly extremely
low to the ground. Images will also be useful to disaster response,
allowing workers to quickly determine which part of a region has been
hit hardest by an earthquake or flood.
