Fully polarimetric SAR mosaicing and land cover classification in the northern taiga region

The paper describes an algorithm development for production of large-scale fully polarimetric mosaic using multitemporal ALOS PALSAR acquisitions during snow melting season in Lapland. Several popular supervised and unsupervised polarimetric classification methods are benchmarked in order to identif...
