The Use of Polarimetric and Interferometric Sar Data in Floodplain Mapping
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent advances in polarimetric SAR show promise for augmenting the capability of traditional interferometric SAR. In particular, a polarimetric topography technique provides useful slope information, and polarimetric interferometry may be used to decompose the response into vegetation and ground surface contributions. Here we discuss an integrated approach that utilizes the combined capability of regular (single channel) interferometry, polarimetric interferometry and polarimetric topographic mapping for topographic mapping of flood-prone areas. Additionally, polarimetric SAR data are used to provide soil moisture and land cover characterization inputs from the same remotely sensed data.

This paper describes the development of techniques for the production of urban mapping data from interferometric polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. The information contained in the radar data originates from four types of data properties: • Radiometric, i.e. the channel intensities • Polarimetric, e.g. decomposition properties entropy and alpha • Interferometric, e.g. coherence a...

In this study, the capabilities of Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series data and machine learning have been evaluated for land cover mapping in Iran. In this way, a time series of Sentinel-1 SAR data (including 16 SLC images with approximately 24 days time interval) from 2018 to 2020 were used for a region of Ahvaz County located in Khuzestan province. Using InSAR proces...
متن کاملPolarimetric and Interferometric SAR Calibration Verification Methods
It is necessary to calibrate SAR data in order to use the data for science applications. When both polarimetric and interferometric data are collected simultaneously, these SAR data can be used for cross-calibration and verification. The frequency of polarimetric and interferometric data does not have to be the same for this purpose. For example, the NASA/JPL AIRSAR system can acquire C-band in...
