Radar polarimetry has garnered significant attention due to its invaluable role in the precise monitoring of Earth's surface. In order to comprehend the fundamental principles of polarimetry and its wide range of applications, Polarimetric SAR Imaging provides an in-depth explanation. This comprehensive guide covers various topics such as deforestation, tree classification, landslide detection, tsunamis, volcano eruptions, and ash distribution, snow accumulation, rice field monitoring, urban area exploration, ship detection, and more. The explanations are supported by actual data sets obtained from Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS) and ALOS2.
As climate change poses increasingly complex challenges, there is a growing demand for detailed earth observation utilizing polarimetric data. However, due to the intricate nature of treating vector waves in radar, there exists a gap between theory and practical application. Polarimetric SAR Imaging: Theory and Applications aims to bridge this gap.
Key Features:
1. Presents cutting-edge polarimetric applications for earth observation with full-color images.
2. Offers detailed descriptions of theory, equations, expansions, and flowcharts, along with numerous real-world examples.
3. Explains concepts, data analysis, and applications in a simple and intuitive language, designed to enhance comprehension for both students and experts.
4. Provides specific and unique examples of PolSAR images derived from actual space and airborne systems (ALOS/ALOS2, PiSAR-x/L).
5. Illustrated in full color using images generated by polarimetric techniques, this book is user-friendly and suitable for both classroom instruction and field applications.
In summary, Polarimetric SAR Imaging: Theory and Applications is a valuable resource for anyone interested in exploring the realm of radar polarimetry and its diverse applications. With its comprehensive coverage, clear explanations, and practical examples, this book serves as an excellent guide for students, researchers, and professionals alike.
