This full color book is a comprehensive visual reference for the
interpretation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images with
examples of how technological specifications may affect
interpretation solutions. It contains a summary review of image
acquisition parameters of consequence on the visual representation
of objects, introduces traditional interpretation keys under
different light and applies them for considering regional landscape
components and identifying large-scale geographical ensembles.
Through elements of interpretation such as the construct of tone,
texture, pattern, size, and shape, the book explains the rich
unique context of many terrains. It provides also several SAR X-
and C-band image examples of regional and large-scale land use and
land cover (LULC) ensembles, includes important explanations for
each illustration, and highlights selected SAR image applications.
Ancillary information includes acquisition specifications, a
geographic scale, and the image-center latitude and longitude.
Features: Provides ready access to any type of information for an
image interpretation problem related to current LULC classification
schemes. Presents scalable geographic information interpreted at a
regional scale and land cover ensembles that can also be
interpreted locally. Provides comparative examples of images
acquired from X- and C-band, opposed look directions, near- and
far-range incidence angles, like- and cross-polarization modes.
Includes practical explanations easily transferred to individual's
research projects. Designed as "visual dictionary," SAR Image
Interpretation for Various Land Covers: A Practical Guide, is an
excellent introduction to the visual interpretation of SAR images
for numerous types of LULC. Both practitioners and students will
familiarize themselves with and expand their knowledge of
geographic information conveyed from radar images while government
agencies and businesses that use LULC-related data for emergency
response cases of for urban and regional planning, will find this
book invaluable.
