Abstract

In this work, we present a new architecture for the analysis multitemporal SAR data combining classic synthetic aperture radar processing and geographical object-based image analysis. The architecture exploits the characteristics of the recently introduced RGB products of the Level-1α and Level-1β families, employing self-organizing map clustering and object-based image analysis aiming at the definition of opportune layers measuring scattering and geometric properties of candidate objects to classify. The obtained results have been compared with those given by literature and turned out to provide high degree of accuracy and negligible false alarms. The discussion is supported by an example concerning small reservoir mapping in semi-arid environment.
