The 60 meter long deployable mast isderived from Space Station hardware.
Additional C-band and X-bandantennae are located at the end of themast.
Avionics are added for attitude andorbit determination.
The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM)
The shaded area was mapped by SRTM.
SRTM acquired data with 225 km swaths for ten days,
imaging all of the Earth’s land surface between 60° N
and 56° S latitude.
The data will be processed into a digital topographic
map. SRTM will also produce a rectified, terrain-
corrected C-band image mosaic of 80% of the Earth’s
land surface at 30 meter resolution and a terrain
classification overlay.
The X-band interferometer is supplied by the German and Italian space agencies.

The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) flew on Endeavour Feb11, 2000 for 11 days with objective ofgenerating three-dimensional maps of 80% of Earth's landmass.
SRTM was 100% successful, yielding 12 terabytes of raw data and completely covering the Earth from tip ofSouth America to Greenland.
The completed data set will contain more than 180 billion individual elevation measurements, with resolutionexceeding best existing global maps by two orders of magnitude.
