In September 1997 the Canadian spacecraft RADARSAT-1 maneuvered from a right-looking to a left-looking mode. In the subsequent 24 days approximately 22.5 hours of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data were acquired in an effort to create the world's first complete high-resolution radar map of Antarctica. This paper presents the calibration strategy employed for the Antarctic Mapping Mission (AMM) and summarizes the data collected. Preliminary calibration results show that the science requirements for the data set are being met.
