A correction of the local incidence angle of SAR data: a land cover specific approach for time series analysis
 Paluba, Daniel ; Štych, Přemysl (advisor) ; Mouratidis, Antonios (referee)
To ensure the highest possible temporal resolution of SAR data, it is necessary to use all the available acquisition orbits and paths of a selected area. This can be a challenge in a mountainous terrain, where the side-looking geometry of space-borne SAR satellites in combination with different slope and aspect angles of terrain can strongly affect the backscatter intensity. These errors/noises caused by terrain need to be eliminated. Although there have been methods described in the literature that address this problem, none of these methods is prepared for operable and easily accessible time series analysis in the mountainous areas. This study deals with a land cover-specific local incidence angle (LIA) correction method for time-series analysis of forests in mountainous areas. The methodology is based on the use of a linear relationship between backscatter and LIA, which is calculated for each image separately. Using the combination of CORINE and Hansen Global Forest databases, a wide range of different LIAs for a specific forest type can be generated for each individual image. The algorithm is prepared and tested in cloud-based platform Google Earth Engine (GEE) using Sentinel-1 open access data, SRTM digital elevation model, and CORINE and Hansen Global Forest databases. The method was tested...
