Multibaseline Polarimetric Sar Interferometry Forest Height Inversion Approaches
Polarimetric SAR interferometry (Pol-InSAR) is a radar remote sensing technique that is sensitive to the vertical distribution of scattering processes in volumes. The Random Volume over Ground (RVoG) model is a powerful tool used to invert forest height from PolInSAR data. But Pol-InSAR inversion performance depends critically on uncompensated decorrelation contributions (i.e. temporal decorrel...
متن کاملEstimation and Monitoring of Tropical Forest Biomass Using Polarimetric Interferometric SAR Data
The purpose of the proposed work is to examine the feasibility of using Polarimetric Interferometric SAR (PolInSAR) techniques on ALOS PALSAR data to extract forest canopy heights with the ultimate objective of deriving biomass estimates. Previous work [1] has shown that in homogeneous European forest stands, tree height is a reasonably robust estimator of biomass through a simple allometric re...
متن کاملBuilding Characterisation using Polarimetric Interferometric SAR Data
This paper describes the characterisation of buildings using fully polarimetric interferometric SAR data at Lband. This analysis is performed in two steps. Urban targets are first discriminated from surrounding natural media, using a polarimetric classification procedure. Then, urban objects are characterised by their shape information. The length and width is obtained using a superresolution p...
متن کامل3d Forest Structure Derived from Polarimetric Multibaseline Insar Data and Its Relation to Biomass
In this paper, recently conceived polarimetric array signal processing techniques are applied for producing 3D images over forested scenes from multibaseline POL-InSAR observations. Subsequently, the optimal scattering mechanisms are investigated using polarimetric decomposition algorithms. The derived structural forest parameters serve as a basis for determining the biomass. This three-dimensi...
متن کاملBuilding height estimation using multibaseline L-band SAR data and polarimetric weighted subspace fitting methods
Multibaseline (MB) PolinSAR techniques are applied to the analysis of urban areas to estimate the heights of scatterers, discriminate the layover contributions and extract scattering mechanisms. This paper applies the weighted subspace fitting (WSF) method to resolve the MB-PolinSAR problem in urban areas. Considering two scatterer signal models, i.e, the coherent and distributed scatterers, WS...
