Comparative Analysis of Risat-1 and Simulated Radarsat-2 Hybrid Polarimetric Sar Data for Different Land Features
نویسندگان
چکیده
The purpose of this study is to compare the performance of first hybrid polarimetric spaceborne satellite RISAT-1 data and simulated hybrid polarimetric data from quad-pol RADARSAT-2 data for different land use land cover (LULC) classes. The present study compares Stokes (g0, g1, g2 and g3) and its decomposed parameters (m, chi, delta and CPR) for satellite data acquired from RISAT1 and RADARSAT-2 over Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, India. Further, backscattering coefficients are also compared for different LULC types. The results indicate that both the satellites are following approximately the same trend for different classes except for settlements in RISAT-1.
