Water Area Extraction Using RADARSAT SAR Imagery Combined with Landsat Imagery and Terrain Information
This paper exploits an effective water extraction method using SAR imagery in preparation for flood mapping in unpredictable flood situations. The proposed method is based on the thresholding method using SAR amplitude, terrain information, and object-based classification techniques for noise removal. Since the water areas in SAR images have the lowest amplitude value, the thresholding method u...
متن کاملEfficient Water Area Classification Using Radarsat-1 SAR Imagery in a High Relief Mountainous Environment
It is important to determine quickly the extent of flooding during extreme cases. Even though SAR imagery with its own energy sources is highly applicable to flood monitoring owing to its sensitivity to the water area, topographic effects caused by local terrain relief must be carefully considered before the actual classification process. Since backscattering coefficients of the shadow area in ...
متن کاملWater Feature Extraction and Change Detection Using Multitemporal Landsat Imagery
Lake Urmia is the 20th largest lake and the second largest hyper saline lake (before September 2010) in the world. It is also the largest inland body of salt water in the Middle East. Nevertheless, the lake has been in a critical situation in recent years due to decreasing surface water and increasing salinity. This study modeled the spatiotemporal changes of Lake Urmia in the period 2000–2013 ...
متن کاملDetecting Water Bodies on RADARSAT Imagery
This paper presents a novel geodesic active contour (GAC) model based on an edge detector for rapid detection of water bodies from spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery with high speckle noise. The original edge indicator function based on gradients is replaced by an edge indicator function based on the ratio of exponentially weighted averages (ROEWA) operator. Thus, the capability ...
متن کاملComparative Information Extraction from Sar and Optical Imagery
Presently EuroSDR, controlled by the Technical University of Berlin, is conducting a test on competitive information extraction from state of the art airborne multi-polarised SAR imagery (C, X and L – band) and high resolution optical imagery of the same area. The test envisages 3 stages, namely visual interpretation and map compilation, automatic object extraction and sensor fusion. Some first...
