A method for generating an image may include translating a radar system about a target area at a selected angular rate and at a predetermined radius from the target area and transmitting a plurality of radar signals in a predetermined frequency range from the radar system as the radar system is translated about the target area. The method may also include collecting a plurality of backscattered radar signals from the target area resulting from the plurality of transmitted radar signals and forming a plurality of Doppler-based projections from the plurality of backscattered radar signals. The method may further include generating an image of the target area using radar tomography and the Doppler-based projections.
