I started my reply in the expectation that it was possible, but soon
had severe doubts so I just posted the neutral facts. And
I've done a bit more work.
The dimensions of a Large Rear plate are 533mm x 152mm
http://www.number-plates-car-registrations.co.uk/number_plate_dimensions
.html. So you've got about 8 pixels across a number plate in my example.
Now I don't think it can be done, and I've put my work on my web site
at http://www.merseia.fsnet.co.uk/index.html.

Nice one. It agrees with what I thought intuitively you'd see at that
kind of resolution. It's "No way, Jose!".

Thanks.
I'll just note that although Martin Brown was appropriately scornful
when I mentioned interferometry I still wonder what the spooks are doing
with it. The Future Imagery Architecture program has $25 billion to
spend http://cartome.org/nro-fia.htm, and the NOSS system has been
flying formations for years http://satobs.org/noss.html.
Seems to me that the real question is "do they have a need for that
resolution ?" If so, they are going to get it. If not, they will aim for
other goals.
