French term
Australia
linéaires d\\\'ouverture
French to English
Science
Environment & Ecology
remote sensing
Another term in a doc giving parameters for remote sensing images...le degré d'ouverture par secteur d'exposition (incluant les linéaires d'ouverture...). Google, I've found "linear apertures" , though whether that's the same, I'm not sure. Anyone knowledgeable about this topic who can advise me? TIA.

is correct but geometrical can also replace linear if that fits your text better

If you're talking Synthetic Aperture Radar.
Google it and see what you think. Look at http://www.sandia.gov/RADAR/whatis.html for example for a brief introduction where you will see that "azimuth" is the direction in which the plane (or satellite?) is travelling.

Note that as the reference explains, the \"aperture\" in SAR is the distance the plane flies (hence \"SYNTHETIC aperture\") and, presumably, the width its radar scans to the side, i.e. the aperture has two components, range and azimuth (or \"along track\")
