چکیده

This paper gives details of how a multi-temporal mosaics using ERS-2 SAR imagery has been generated for the UK and Ireland. This mosaic enables large scale land features and temporal change to be visualised and show potential for land use monitoring on a Europe wide scale.

Mosaic Generation Using Ers Sar Imagery

The ERS-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) acquired calibrated imagery between September 1991 and March 2000 while the ERS-2 SAR has been acquiring calibrated imagery since July 1995. During that time, both SARs have acquired large quantities of data [1] over large areas of the Earth’s surface. Indeed many areas have been imaged at frequent intervals and some even once per repeat period. With suc...

The Synergy of Ers-2 Sar and Radarsat Sar Imagery of Sea-ice from the Kara Sea

This work investigates the use of multi-source images to classify sea-ice conditions in the South-western Kara Sea, and in doing so simulate the alternating mode which will be available from the ASAR sensor on board Envisat. The unique data set comprises SAR images obtained from both ERS-2 and Radarsat platforms over a 12 hour-period on 23 March 1997, which also provides a high temporal resolut...

Monitoring of Rice-planted Areas Using Space-borne Sar Data

The authors attempted to estimate rice-planted areas using multi-temporal RADARSAT fine-mode and ERS1/SAR data in an early period of rice-planting season. The eastern part of Hiroshima City, HigashiHiroshima City, was selected as the test field, and three multi-temporal RADARSAT fine-mode images and ERS-1/SAR images, taken before and after rice-planting were used as the test data. From the firs...

A Two-thresholds Em-mrf Algorithm for Change Detection of Multi-temporal Ers-2 Sar Images

To automatically detect and analyze the surface change in the urban area from multi-temporal SAR images, an algorithm of twothresholds EM (Expectation Maximum) and MRF (Markov Random Field) is developed. Difference of the SAR images demonstrates variation of backscattering caused by the surface change over all image pixels. Two thresholds are obtained by the EM iterative process and are applied...

Tree Height Estimation from Multi-temporal Ers Sar Interferometric Phase

Multi-temporal sets of ERS-1/2 SAR interferometric (InSAR) phase have been evaluated at several test sites in Europe for tree height estimation. Atmospheric artefacts affected a large number of image pairs. These were generally well compensated in case of large-scale artefacts over small forests, whereas for large forests their effect could only be assessed. Hence, the amount of pairs utilizabl...
