Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method (100) for rendering a simulated Synthetic Aperture Radar, SAR, image. The method comprises providing (110) a digital surface model or the like comprising 3D coordinate data in a geo-referenced coordinate system, determining (120) a sub-section of the digital surface model, and obtaining (130) the simulated SAR image based on the subsection of the digital surface model, wherein substantially each point in the simulated SAR image being associated to a 3D coordinate in the geo-referenced coordinate system.
