Airborne Line Scanner Measurements for ERS-1 SAR Interpretation of Sea Ice
The potential of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images recorded withthe First European Remote Sensing Satellite (ERS-1) for sea iceclassification is investigated. The classification strategy employed is aregion-based segmentation with subsequent interpretation of thesegments. The formation of homoge...
