The values placed after a slash are estimates for the RADARSAT Antarctic Mapping Project (RAMP), i.e. left-looking mode.

"ScanSAR 100" is another label for "Medium Resolution."
Note: The minimum and maximum sizes listed for the ScanSAR products correspond to the min and max possible sizes for geocoded and terrain-corrected ScanSAR products. The minimum possible size is the same as the size of a standard ScanSAR image; i.e. no rotation was needed to transform the data onto a specified map projection. A value of 2 times the standard image size was estimated as the upper limit for a geocoded image; in the worst case where the data must be rotated by 90 degrees to fit the map projection, the resulting image should be less than this estimated limit.
