In the present work, it is presented spectral analysis of secular series of radar images to study the fields of maritime agitation. For this intention series of images of the radar of the maritime traffic of the Port of Sines had been used. With the purpose of being able to analyze the maritime agitation, the radar was calibrated using the values of height of significant wave supplied by a situated buoy directional buoy close to the irradiation zone it radar. The specters to scale and directional, as well as the resultant parameters of the state of sea of the spectral analysis of the coincident data in the time of both sensors, they are presented and compared.
