This paper describes the current status of PALSAR-3, L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) boarded on Advanced Land Observing Satellite-4 (ALOS-4). ALOS-4 is the following mission of the ALOS-2 and the fourth generation of Japanese L-band SAR missions. PALSAR-3 has three observation modes same as PALSAR-2 boarded on ALOS-2. The same orbit and observation geometry as PALSAR-2 are selected to enable interferometric SAR (INSAR) time series analysis over 10 years using both of PALSAR-2 and PALSAR-3 data. PALSAR-3 will have the Basic Observation Scenario (BOS), same as PALSAR-2
