  • Markus Törmä
چکیده

This paper studies the applicability of ERS-1 and JERS SAR-images to land-use classification. Different factors affecting classification accuracy like environmental conditions of study area, speckle filtering, spatial averaging, texture measures and different ways to use temporal images are discussed. Classification experiment employing three principal component images computed from median filtered ERS-1 images, median filtered JERS-1 image and texture image was made. The overall accuracy of training area was 61.1% and test area 67.2%. Classes agricultural field and water were classified well and urban area moderately. Forest classes were classified poorly and were mixed with each other and the swamp class.

Land-use Classification Using Temporal Sar-images

14 ERS-1 SAR images were classified using three different classification algorithms. Median filtering and principal component analysis were used in speckle reduction and feature extraction. Feature selection was performed using branch-and-bound algorithm. The best classification accuracy (55-60%) was achieved when principal component images computed from median filtered SAR images were used. In...

Using dual-polarised L-band SAR and optical satellite imagery for land cover classification in Southern Vietnam: comparison and combination

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and optical images contain different types of land cover information. Moreover, whereas like-polarisation SAR images are predominately influenced by surface backscattering properties, the volume backscattering characteristics of surfaces are well represented by SAR cross-polarisation data. Hence, combined use of likeand cross-polarisation data could enhance the la...

A Matching Algorithm for Detecting Land Use Changes Using Case-Based Reasoning

The paper deals with change detection using time series SAR images. SAR provides a unique opportunity for detecting land-use changes within short intervals (e.g., monthly) in tropical and sub-tropical regions with cloud cover. Traditional change detection methods mainly rely on per-pixel spectral information but ignore per-object structural information. In this study, a new method is presented ...
