The following data set was collected in September of 1995 at the Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, AL by the Sandia National Laboratory (SNL) SAR sensor platform. The collection was jointly sponsored by DARPA and Air Force Research Laboratory as part of the Moving and Stationary Target Acquisition and Recognition (MSTAR) program. SNL used an X-band SAR sensor in one foot resolution spotlight mode. Strip map mode was used to collect the clutter data.

The "Slicy" target is a precisely designed and machined engineering test target containing standard radar reflector primitive shapes such as flat plates, dihedrals, trihedrals, and top hats. The purpose of this target is to allow Image Understanding developers the ability to validate the functionality of their algorithm with a simple known target.
