Introduction to Radar data processing

Sensors

SAR analysis methods

  • SAR backscatter analysis (about): enables to estimate volume of water contained in soil, volume of biomass in forests, conditions of waves in the ocean etc.
    • Requirements: ...
  • SAR interferometry processing (about): enables to produce elevation data and to measure topographical change (two SAR images are used - called Master Image and Slave image, respectively)
    • Requirements: complex SAR data - Single Look Complex as parallax is not removed
  • Polarimetric SAR processing (about): forest fire monitoring, classification of vegetation (height), water content in vegetation, monitoring of snow cover, condition of ice, flood monitoring and soil moisture.
    • Requirements: ...
