Land Cover Classification based on Polarimetric Coherence Signatures
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper presents a new form of polarimetric interferometric information visualization: polarimetric coherence signatures. These signatures combine the idea of conventional polarization signatures and the concept of interferometric coherence. The polarimetric coherence signature plot shows the magnitude of the interferometric coherence as a function of the polarization ellipse parameters (ellipticity and orientation angles).

Land cover is defined as the physical material of the surface of the earth, including different vegetation covers, bare soil, water surface, various urban areas, etc. Land cover and its changes are very important and influential on the Earth and life of living organisms, especially human beings. Land cover change monitoring is important for protecting the ecosystem, forests, farmland, open spac...

Different decomposition approaches have been proposed in order to analyse and interpret SAR polarimetric images. These are based either on the complex voltage reflection matrix, like Pauli, or on power reflection matrix, like the covariance or coherency matrix. They produce polarimetric parameters which are appropriate to retrieve information on the scattering process of the target. If the targ...

The objective of this research is to evaluate multi-temporal RADARSAT-2 polarimetric SAR data for urban land-cover classification using a novel classification scheme. Six-date RADARSAT-2 Polarimetric SAR data in both ascending and descending orbits were acquired during June to September 2008 in the rural-urban fringe of the Greater Toronto Area. The major land-cover types are builtup areas, roa...
متن کاملPolarimetric Coherence for Land Covers Classification
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data is extensively used in recent decades for Earth surface monitoring. Advantages of SAR are well-known: good resolution, all-weather, day-and-night etc. SAR Interferometry (INSAR) is a well-established technique which has a lot of applications, e.g., topography mapping, change detection, estimation of surface displacements, thematic mapping. Repeat-pass interfe...
