current position:
Director of Remote Sensing Technology Institute at DLR
Head of Chair for Remote Sensing Technology at TUM
field of work:
Research interests are in algorithms for optimum information extraction from remote sensing data, estimation theory and model based inversion methods. Emphasis lies in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), SAR interferometry, SAR tomography, ground moving target indication (GMTI) for traffic monitoring, and oceanography.
He and his team have been involved in several Earth observation missions, e.g. ERS-1/2, ENVISAT, SIR-C/X-SAR, Radarsat-1/2, SRTM, ALOS, and MetOP. They are responsible for the development of the algorithms and operational processing systems for the German satellite missions TerraSAR-X, TanDEM-X, and EnMAP.
biography:
Richard Bamler received his diploma degree in electrical engineering, his doctor of engineering degree, and his "habilitation" in the field of signal and systems theory in 1980, 1986, and 1988, respectively, from the Technische Universität München (Germany).
He worked at that university during 1981 and 1989 on optical signal processing, holography, wave propagation, and tomography.
He joined the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Oberpfaffenhofen, in 1989, where he is currently the director of the Remote Sensing Technology Institute.
In early 1994 he was a visiting scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in preparation of the Space Shuttle SIC-C/X-SAR missions, and in 1996 he was a guest professor and the University of Innsbruck in Austria.
Since 2003 he has held a professorship in remote sensing technology at the Technische Universität München.
Professor Bamler is an IEEE Fellow. He is the author of more than 150 scientific publications, a book on multidimensional linear systems theory, and several patents on SAR signal processing.
