SAR Image Analysis
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Image Analysis is an active microwave remote sensing pipeline that processes complex-valued radar backscatter data to characterize land cover, surface roughness, moisture, and structural properties. Foundational treatment was consolidated by Jong-Sen Lee and Eric Pottier in their 2009 CRC Press volume, which established the polarimetric framework widely adopted by research and operational communities working with satellites such as Sentinel-1, ALOS PALSAR, and RADARSAT.
