Illustrative image: This image from Sentinel-1A was acquired over the Lake County in the US state of Oregon on 17 July. Even though the northwestern United States receives plenty of rainfall, the ‘high desert region’ east of the Cascade Mountain Range is fairly dry. Most crops require irrigation, such as the circles visible in this image from a centre pivot irrigation system. Sentinel-1’s radar gathers information in either horizontal or vertical radar pulses, and colours were assigned to the different types.
