Polarimetric Analysis of Airborne Dlr-esar Data for Vegetation Characterization

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Polarimetry is the measurement and interpretation of different polarizations of electro-magnetic waves. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has been proven to be a powerful earth observation tool and emerging Polarimetric SAR (POLSAR) adds another dimension to SAR information content. Polarimetric SAR has been used in retrieval of soil moisture and surface roughness, snow and ice mapping and land-cover classification (Martini, 2004; Wakabayashi, 2004; Macri, 2003; Shi, 1997; Anup et al., 2006). Due to its sensitivity to vegetation and various land-covers, SAR polarimetry has the potential for crop and land-cover classification.

Scene Characterization Using Sub-Aperture Polarimetric SAR data Analysis

In this paper is introduced a fully polarimetric sub-aperture analysis method. A deconvolution technique is developed in order to decompose synthesized SAR images into sub-aperture data sets which correspond to the scene global response observed under different azimuthal look angles. A polarimetric variation analysis is achieved, using pertinent parameters, to determine the nature of the non-st...

A Method of Agricultural Areas Sar Data Segmentation Based on Unsupervised Full- Polarimetric

Classification is achieved by Markov random field filtering on the original data. The result is a series of segmented maps, which differ in the number of (unsupervised) classes. For a (compatible) supervised approach, only the first and last step have to be applied. Results are discussed for the agricultural areas Flevoland in The Netherlands (AirSAR data)and DEMMIN in Germany, using the NASA/J...
