The theoretical background, types of side looking airborne radar (SLAR) systems with their specifications, properties and limitations are described. The "slar" images are interpreted; these were obtained during survey flights over the Bothnia Gulf. Actual interpretation is based on a comparison with aerial photographs, taken during the same period.
