چکیده
1 Presented at IGARSS 2002, Toronto, 2002. This work was partially supported by NSF (CCR-0086065). Abstract— This paper presents a new method for the visualisation of polarimetric response patterns on a synoptic basis. The aim of this approach is to synthesise traditional polarimetric response graphs with the spatial overview provided by standard remote sensing image processing techniques. By doing this, an effective means of exploring phenomenological polarimetric response patterns is achieved, which may prove to be a valuable input for the development of modelling strategies and the application of polarimetry.

Change Detection in Urban Area Using Decision Level Fusion of Change Maps Extracted from Optic and SAR Images
The last few decades witnessed high urban growth rates in many countries. Urban growth can be mapped and measured by using remote sensing data and techniques along with several statistical measures. The purpose of this research is to detect the urban change that is used for urban planning. Change detection using remote sensing images can be classified into three methods: algebra-based, transfor...
متن کاملThe Extended Sub-look Analysis In Polarimetric SAR Data For Ship Detection
The monitoring of maritime areas with remote sensing is essential for security reasons and also for the conservation of environment. The synthetic aperture radar (SAR) can play an important role in this matter by considering the possibility of acquiring high-resolution images at nighttime and under cloud cover. Recently, the new approaches based on the sub-look analysis for preserving the infor...
متن کاملClassification of polarimetric radar images based on SVM and BGSA
Classification of land cover is one of the most important applications of radar polarimetry images. The purpose of image classification is to classify image pixels into different classes based on vector properties of the extractor. Radar imaging systems provide useful information about ground cover by using a wide range of electromagnetic waves to image the Earthchr('39')s surface. The purpose ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Scattering Components from Fully Polarimetric Sar Images for Improving Accuracies of Urban Density Estimation
In this paper, we analyze probability density functions (PDFs) of scatterings derived from fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images for improving the accuracies of estimated urban density. We have reported a method for estimating urban density that uses an index Tv+c obtained by normalizing the sum of volume and helix scatterings Pv+c. Validation results showed that estimated ur...
متن کاملMicrowave Imaging Using SAR
Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (Pol.-SAR) allows us to implement the recognition and classification of radar targets. This article investigates the arrangement of scatterers by SAR data and proposes a new Look-up Table of Region (LTR). This look-up table is based on the combination of (entropy H/Anisotropy A) and (Anisotropy A/scattering mechanism α), which has not been reported up now. ...
