Explore the capabilities and applications of ground-based and airborne radar and SAR systems used to support both data collection and sense and avoid functions.

Identify the strengths, weaknesses, and several example applications for both primary data collection and separation assurance tasks. How do you think radar systems compare to other sensor types for primary collection of targets on the ground and in support of obstacle or aircraft sense and avoid requirements?

Can you identify any needs for additional development to make radar or SAR systems more viable for widespread incorporation into UAS, particularly small platforms?
