In this paper we present the activities performed at Microwaves and Radar Institute of German Aerospace Center (DLR) to derive global forest/non-forest classification mosaics from interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data acquired by TanDEM-X mission. The have been collected between 2011 2016 in bistatic stripmap single polarization (HH) mode, with main goal generating a consistent, timely, highly accurate 3D representation terrain's surface (digital elevation model, DEM). set...
In this paper, we discuss the potential and limitations of high-resolution single-pass interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data for forest mapping. particular, present forest/non-forest classification mosaics State Pennsylvania, USA, generated using TanDEM-X at ground resolutions down to 6 m. The investigated set was acquired between 2011 in bistatic stripmap single polarization (HH) mode. Among different factors affecting quality InSAR data, so-called volume correlation factor...
The interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data set, acquired by the TanDEM-X (TerraSAR-X add-on for Digital Elevation Measurement) mission (TDM), represents a unique source to derive geo-information products at global scale. complete Earth’s landmasses have been surveyed least twice during bistatic operation, which started end of 2010. Examples delivered are digital elevation model (DEM) (at final independent posting 12 m × m) or Forest/Non-Forest (FNF) map. need reliable water...
